Mr. Gerry Liston:

I am on the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade's website. It cites Article 29.3 of the Constitution, which states "Ireland accepts the generally recognised principles of international as its rule of conduct in its relations with other states". The website also states a "commitment to the rule of international law is enshrined in the Constitution of Ireland and is one of the core principles of Irish foreign policy". All we are asking is that the committee in its report holds the Government and Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to that principle.
