I move:

That the proposal that, in accordance with the Programme for Government commitments, Dáil Éireann approves Ireland's participation in four Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO) Projects: i) Cyber Threats and Incident Response Information Sharing Platform,

ii) Deployable Military Disaster Relief Capability Package,

iii) Special Operations Forces Medical Training Centre, and

iv) Maritime (semi) Autonomous Systems for Mine Countermeasures, be referred to the Select Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence, in accordance with Standing Order 95(1)(a), which, not later than 5th July, 2022, shall send a message to the Dáil in the manner prescribed in Standing Order 101, and Standing Order 100(2) shall accordingly apply.
