Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: International Security Fund: Motion (26 Sep 2018)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: International Security Fund: Motion (26 Sep 2018)

Clare Daly: I did not ask why we should bother. I am concerned in regard to the backdrop of the view of the population on the Lisbon treaty. This is an opt-in in relation to the Lisbon treaty. I am very cognisant that we cannot divorce a discussion of internal security across Europe from security decisions made by the European Union such as to raise the borders and spend massive amounts of money on...
