Equally, it includes the State of Israel in terms of, for example, these massive bunker bombs which take out hundreds of people in the name of taking out one commander. I accept fully the points Deputy Ó Murchú made on our peacekeepers - their safety and security is our priority - and on continuing to pursue justice and get answers from the...

- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Ukraine War (10 Oct 2024)
Seán Fleming: I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. Ireland remains steadfast in our support for the people and Government of Ukraine. The conflict, since the illegal Russian invasion in February 2022, continues to drive the numbers of people in need of urgent humanitarian assistance. As Ukraine faces into another harsh winter, Ireland's humanitarian funding will continue to target the most...

Pádraig O'Sullivan: I thank the Minister of State. I acknowledge the announcement last month of that €36 million. It is very welcome. Perhaps the Minister of State will give the House an estimate on the overall contribution the State has made on that fund since its inception in 2022. One of the most reprehensible acts that has been done in the Ukraine-Russia conflict is the forced deportation of...

- Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Oct 2024)
Neasa Hourigan: This has been a useful conversation. We are still talking about it in terms of saying that people are getting off scot-free. There is a sense of that in the public; I do not mean the witnesses are saying it. That there is a sense in the public that diversion means that people are getting scot-free for hurting themselves just seems crazy. Deputy McAuliffe left and is coming back in a...
