Local TD believes Government is moving away from neutrality

Sinn Fein wants Ireland's neutrality protected.

The Consultative Forum on International Security Policy will take place in Dublin Castle today, after sessions last week in Cork and Galway.

Sinn Fein believes the Government is using it's consultative forum on international security to become more closely aligned with military alliances at an EU level.

Ireland's policy of military neutrality will be discussed at the event which will end tomorrow.

Local TD Matt Carthy believes the Government is moving away from neutrality.
