We should seek agreement from the Government for a debate tomorrow morning. The Tánaiste’s response this morning was weak on the actions the Government will take to engage with Israel, and the Israeli ambassador.

This is a sensible proposal. I ask the Tánaiste to agree to that. It is not a big request but this is a massive concern around the world and on the streets of Ireland as people watch what is happening in the Gaza strip and hear the stories of the experiences of the people of Gaza. Given the season we are in the Tánaiste should agree to this very sensible proposal this morning.
