Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Deputy for raising this important matter. I share her concerns, horror and disgust at what is happening in Yemen and the impact on civilians there in particular. The Government has made a decision to provide funding through the UN and other agencies for humanitarian assistance in Yemen. We will increase that next year. We have joined with our EU and UN colleagues in calling for a ceasefire in Yemen to allow peace talks to begin.
