Committee on Defence and National Security

General Scheme of the Defence (Amendment) Bill 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Dr. Karen Devine:

Thank you. My point was that the term "soldiering" means, in this paradigm of abolishing the triple lock, war fighting. Just as I cited a wife of a deceased Irish peacekeeper saying, I think a majority of the Irish Defence Forces want to peacekeep and do some good. I cannot go into the history and the experience of all the Members of the Oireachtas who comment publicly. That is not my job.
