I am sure the Leader will deal with the point. The news today that two teenage girls were found hanging from a tree in northern India after they had been gang raped is horrific, and that comes only a couple of days after a Pakistani woman who was three months pregnant was stoned to death outside a court. Recently we have seen what has gone on in Nigeria with the actions of Boko Haram. I ask the Leader to organise a debate on what I see as an internationally deteriorating position for women, and perhaps the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade could discuss the issue in general.
