Committee on Defence and National Security

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

2:00 am

Mr. Stephen Kelly:

None of them has the exact provisions we have in respect of the triple lock. There is disingenuousness on the part of people who want to be in the United Nations and simultaneously not comply with the UN Charter. The triple lock does no more or less than ensure we are doing what we already should be doing as members of the UN by ensuring the UN Security Council is protected. It codifies it in Irish law, and that is the way it should be.
