Trade Between Ireland and the Palestinian Territories: Discussion

Mr. Martin Konený:

That is a good question because the database is a list that exists in one UN report that a lot of people would have difficulty tracing on the Internet. A more popular version has been published by an organisation called Visualizing Palestine. In that version one can easily see the different companies and their activities. The tools and information are available on the Internet and it is about bringing that closer to the public and the broad citizenry. That is where civil society is already playing a role and parliamentarians can also do so with their constituencies.
