When American businesses raise with Mr. O'Brien's members why Ireland is doing this or that, would it assist companies if they had an answer, for example, if they were assisted by the Government in answering this? For example, this is not a boycott of Israeli goods; it is a boycott of goods emanating from the occupied territories. If services were included, it would not be a boycott of Israeli services; it would be a boycott of services emanating from the occupied territories. Would this be helpful?
