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

Dr. John Reynolds:
I think so. Ireland has taken time to get there has well. There has been a lot of tireless work done by organisations across the country to push on these issues. However, it was Ireland and Spain that sent that letter more than a year ago now to start the process. It is shameful that the European Union takes this long to even get to the discussion point, but through all of that process Ireland has been leading, and it should continue with even more urgency.
