I do not have a difficulty with seeking a presentation; that is a sensible suggestion. I deal with a small group of international parliamentarians and we have met and discussed this issue with a number of ambassadors of various countries to the United Nations. They were very supportive of the idea because they see the need to have resolutions passed by the assembly implemented, adopted and dealt with. The suggestion made by Deputy Seán Crowe will add strength in having the issue ventilated. Perhaps the motion might then be passed on to the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
