Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

General Scheme of Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. Alan Shatter:

You are not dealing with the lives of people. What you are doing is trying to ban the importation of a small amount of olives and avocados from the West Bank and East Jerusalem, the total value of which over five years came to €685,000. It is a thing of complete irrelevance in the context of conflict resolution.
