I welcome our guests. If our Government recognises the state of Palestine, will it matter one iota seeing that so little progress has made over the past 60 years, as has been referred to? My question, which was partially answered earlier, related to humanitarian aid and the rebuilding of all the buildings that were destroyed. Is there any significant move that can be made by the EU to ensure that the pledged aid that the various member states have indicated that they are prepared to provide can start to filter through, start the rebuilding process and begin to restore some sort of normality for the people who are suffering most and who are living in appalling conditions?

I have not visited Palestine so I do not quite know the extent of the settlement goods but could the witnesses quantify the economic value of the settlement goods? What would it mean or how big a hit would the producers of settlements goods take if there was a ban on settlement goods?
