An Bille um an Séú Leasú is Fiche ar an mBunreacht, 2002: An Dara Céim. Twenty-sixth Amendment of the Constitution Bill, 2002: Second Stage.
The difference between a war such as may arise under the obligations of the charter and other wars is that that type of war would be a war of enforcement – enforcement of obligations and also enforcement of rights. If there is ever to be a rule of law, nations must make up their minds that they will take part in such enforcement because if there is not such enforcement then, of course, the duties and rights that are guaranteed will be thrown aside.
