I support the Supplementary Estimate. I commend the Minister on yesterday's response to the Smithwick inquiry, which revealed collusion. He came out to the plinth very quickly and apologised. I thank him for that. He represented the views of most Members of the Oireachtas.

I thank the Defence Forces for and commend them on the magnificent work they do both at home and abroad, particularly at United Nations level.

I will not have a go the Minister today but I do have two questions for him. Does he have any up-to-date information on the recent attacks on our Defence Forces in Syria?
