Mr. Oliver Gilvarry:

If there was a statutory scheme, we would need to have a framework for engaging with the firms and allowing them to appeal and, in the context of divestment, to say they are gone from the country. Some 13 or 14 companies were removed from the UN updated list from 2020 to 2023. There were changes. Those different things would all have to be operationalised if this Bill went forward in order to ensure it would be robust.
