My question is to Senator Black. What impression was she under after her meeting with the Tánaiste a fortnight ago? Did she feel a serious attempt was going to be made to have this legislation passed before the dissolution of the Dáil?

I have one other question for the Tánaiste. In the absence of the legislation, a policy decision has been made not to purchase drones. Will the Government make a policy decision not to make any further purchases from any area of the occupied territories or Israel?
