Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
General Scheme of the Defence (Amendment) Bill 2023: Discussion (Resumed)
Professor Brian MacCraith:
It is not explicitly noted in our terms of reference and I do not recall seeing it in the heads of the Bill itself. The matter might arise where a particular DFR or set of DFRs was having an impact on some matter which we wanted to progress but it is not explicitly there. I believe colleagues are nodding their heads in agreement with this comment.
