If the man from Mars mentioned earlier came to the House tonight and read our motion and the Government's amendment to it, he would have to read them again before he would see any substantial difference between the two. There is recognition across a broad political spectrum – Senator McDowell's contribution shows that it is not a simple right-left divide – that in changing times, changing politics and a changing world, we must look at things anew. The Fine Gael motion is promoting and encouraging debate and asking all of us to face the new reality and recognise that new policies will have to be designed for the security and defence of a new Europe. Ireland cannot sit on the sidelines. It must be a full part of the team.
