Committee on Defence and National Security

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

2:00 am

Mr. Ciarán Murphy:

In the normal course of events, it would be the European Union. It could also be the African Union or ASEAN. You need an international group to come together to say something is a problem. It is not for any one state to say "This is a problem. Everybody, come with me."
