The next matter, in the name of Senator Clonan, relates to the need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Defence to make a statement on the role of the commissioned officers of the Defence Forces during the trials and sentencing hearings of soldiers accused of criminal offences. I will add a general comment. Decisions or judgments of the court cannot be the subject of review or discussion in this House as the House is not a judicial body. I know the Senator will be fully aware of that.
