Other issues were raised by my colleagues in the Dáil. Deputy Higgins raised the need to take on board the views of those who will be involved in or serve on the mission and those who would have previous experience of peacekeeping missions. Deputy Higgins mentioned the fear that because there have been a lot of retirements from the Army the age profile of those going to Liberia might be younger and that even though they might have other advantages through being younger, they would not have the same level of experience as older members of the Defence Forces. I am not saying that is the case.
