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
Ms Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh:
Respectfully, as has been said, the Attorney General's opinion carries a significant amount of weight. We do not know yet what that opinion will be but it is not finally determinative of the law. If the committee does want to proceed, and I very much hope that it would wish to proceed, to comply with its obligations under international law, it may do so.
