Given that it seeks to amend the NTMA Acts in relation to investments made by the Ireland Strategic Investment Fund the Illegal Israeli Settlements Divestment Bill 2023 is under my Department’s responsibility. There has been engagement between my officials and officials of the Department of Foreign Affairs on the Bill since its publication in March last year. Such engagements have included information sharing and coordination in the respect of foreign policy approaches to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
