We all know how turbulent, dangerous and unpredictable the Golan Heights are and collectively we share a deep and genuine concern for the Irish troops stationed in the area. The 48th Infantry Group has returned to Ireland safe and sound and has been replaced by the 50th Infantry Group. I would like to take the opportunity to welcome those troops home.

My question relates to any new measures or protocols in respect of the change in the circumstances on the ground. Are there any plans to reinforce the base's security area, equipment, support vehicles and weaponry given the changed circumstances in the Golan Heights?
