Overseas Missions.
2:30 pm
Brian O'Shea (Waterford, Labour)
I take the point about restricted movement during the rainy season. In the intervening three months, does the Minister envisage the withdrawal of the Irish or UN contingent from Chad? As matters stand, such a withdrawal is not a direct possibility. However, has a military assessment been carried out with regard to what would happen if our troops were placed at risk as a result of a serious deterioration in circumstances? Did the Minister discuss this matter with the Chief of Staff?
