Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Defence Forces: Discussion (15 Nov 2018)

Clare Daly: I am sorry about this but I have a parliamentary question in the Chamber. I have arranged with the Ceann Comhairle for it to be taken later, but some of my questions need an answer and the next question depends on that answer. Can we have a bit of a to and fro?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Defence Forces: Discussion (15 Nov 2018)

It strikes me that the systems are failing. I...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Defence Forces: Discussion (15 Nov 2018)
