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

Dr. Edward Burke:
Absolutely but this would also be the case under Chapter VI. We have seen in Lebanon that occasionally there has been rather robust, sometimes called "Chapter VI 1/2" peacekeeping operations, where the mandate is extended. Mr. Power mentioned the Congo, where the mandate changed in the 1960s and it became very close to peace enforcement.
