I hope we will not make a bags of these amendments. The Minister mentioned the advice of the Attorney General in regard to going to war. I do not believe we have any intention of going to war. Would the advice in regard to peacekeeping be different from that in regard to going to war? Would a different clause apply in regard to peacekeeping duties, which is what we are speaking about in this case? If the Minister is prepared, as Senator Norris has proposed, to table an amendment on Report Stage providing for consultation with the Seanad in this respect, we would go along with that. We want to co-operate. Otherwise, we will take our chances and vote on the amendment on Committee Stage.
