I will of course raise the five points with the Minister. On the question about co-ordination I think that would be appropriate to raise it in the context of a discussion at the Foreign Affairs Council so both will be linked. I assure Senator Norris that we are aware that on 22 October 2014 and 10 December 2014, Seanad Éireann and Dáil Éireann, respectively, adopted unanimous motions calling on the Government to recognise the State of Palestine. It is a matter for the Government as to when that would be most appropriate to put in place but we are aware of the unanimous wishes of both Houses of the Oireachtas.
