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. Fergal O'Brien:
Yes; we have more skin in this game than any other member state or any other country in Europe. In my opening statement I said that despite the differences we have and our Governments have at present, our economies are inextricably linked. The cost to jobs, businesses and livelihoods of further accentuating some of the reputational relationship challenges we have cannot be ignored. These costs will be material.
