We have no political agenda, although undoubtedly there are political implications of a ban - especially for countries which are placing misguided military and commercial priorities ahead of humanitarian concerns. In a couple of hours the BanBus will arrive here in Dublin after a morning drive from west to east - to a big welcome from us here. Tomorrow the conference begins and in two weeks we will bring to culmination a ban on cluster munitions. What happens here in Dublin will save many innocent lives if we succeed.
