Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I want to focus my supplementary questions on the Middle East peace process. Before I do so, I would like to add my voice to those who have raised real concerns about the plight of migrant workers who are preparing for the 2022 World Cup. Their conditions were recently described by The Guardian in London as "modern-day slavery". Surely we cannot tolerate that. I would like to join others in calling on the Government to raise this with FIFA and to propose that this soccer tournament should not go ahead in Qatar unless this situation is rectified. It should be held in a country that respects the rights of workers. Do I have enough time to raise the issues in Syria now as well?
