We can see the trend and the drift. Having seen it, the West Bank is now so fragmented because of the continued proliferation of settlements that I cannot see how a two-state solution is to be achieved. Is it literally a pipe dream that will never be realised? I agree with everything the delegates are saying and believe we have to support the requests they have made. I also agree with what they are saying about the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Deputy Simon Coveney, who has made a lot of strong statements which now need to be acted on.
