Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

Situation in Palestine and Israel: Discussion with EAPPI

3:20 pm

Mr. Joe O'Brien:

To recap, we genuinely believe this is a very practical measure that could make a real difference. While we acknowledge that the actual implementation may be difficult and that there will be a bit of work involved at various levels, including cross-departmentally, it really could have a very significant impact on the future of settlements and the chances for a just peace in the area. We urge all the members to use whatever efforts and influence they have to push for an international ban on illegal settlement produce.
