Yes, the independent review. I thank the Minister.

We are very happy to support this motion. Ireland stands tall on the back of its proud tradition of international peacekeeping as a militarily neutral country. We believe we must invest in our Defence Forces to secure the futures of those who serve, and to protect and secure our territory. We welcome tonight's debate. We hope it will lead to further debate but, as a party, we believe now is not the time to change the triple lock as it currently stands or to compromise our neutrality in any way.
