I apologise for being late. It was our speaking time in the Dáil and I could not drag myself away. I read the Irish Emergency Alliance's opening statement last night. We do, indeed, live in critical times. There is a war in Europe and the ongoing genocide in Gaza with EU and American weapons, as well as the appalling situation in Sudan and all that. I like the idea of an alliance in principle. I like the co-operation and solidarity it implies.

I am sorry if my question has been asked. I can see reference to the groups that are already aligned to the alliance but I do not see GOAL, Concern or MSF. Is it that they just want to stay on their own for the moment? Is there still an opening for them?
