Mr. Hugh Lovatt:

I cannot offer any comment on the FDI sector. Perhaps someone Irish would be better placed than me so Mr. Ó hAinmhire might comment. On foreign support, this mostly goes to budgetary support for the Palestinian Authority and then there is also support for the humanitarian sector. The EU and its member states lead on this. We need to recognise that funding support has decreased across the board, especially among Arab donors. Money from the US is mostly suspended for domestic legislative reasons. It is a worrying backdrop that this financial support is declining.
