I thank the witnesses for attending. We are dealing with an issue that is very live at this point. We have all seen multiple questions asked in the Dáil and Seanad regarding dual use and ensuring we have a sufficient number of criteria and checks to make sure we definitely are not supplying anything - while it may have civilian application - that may possibly end up as weapons of war that are being used particularly in Gaza against the Palestinian people at this time. What is the Department's view very specifically regarding this communication?
