I thank the Minister of State. I want to put on the record that I thank the Minister for calling me last night. I know he would have been here this morning if he could have been. I suppose the Minister of State has to understand my frustration. It is very difficult to watch what is happening in Gaza and see children and families being killed. Not only this but their homes are being destroyed. They are given 58 seconds to leave their homes. What kind of world are we living in? I acknowledge the Minister is very passionate on this issue. I understand where he is coming from. I ask the Government to be open to looking at the opinion of Professor Tridimas and those of Senator Michael McDowell and Professor James Crawford. They are all experts on this issue. I also ask that the Government publishes the advice of the Attorney General. It would be very beneficial for the people of the country to see what the Attorney General is saying so we can argue and debate it. This is my ask today. Let us see the advice of the Attorney General. I thank the Minister of State for coming to the House.
