Seanad
‹ Order of Business Security oversight clarification
Summary
Senator Craughwell objected to the Leader’s remarks, and the Leader insisted the matter lay with Foreign Affairs and Trade, not Defence.
That is an unfair comment.
Comment on this
I ask Senator Craughwell to let me finish. I did not interrupt him. I was not referring to him at all. He did not hear what I said. This is about the security of our State, and oversight is being carried out. Just so Senator Wilson is aware, the issue is a matter for the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, not the Department of Defence.
