Ireland will put hundreds of billions into anything before fixing its own housing problem
> The Government believes becoming a member will allow Ireland to secure military equipment at a lower cost and faster pace – in some cases up to two years earlier than under existing procurement arrangements.

Seems like it’s mostly just a mechanism for obtaining finance for defence spending. It makes sense for us to be part of it since we’re probably going to need to make some large purchases in the coming years, and closer cooperation with our European allies is always a good thing.
Sensible decision.
