An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (5 Nov 2024)

Simon Harris: There is so much muttering going on it is hard to speak. We have to get this legislation correct and I think the appropriate way to proceed is for the foreign affairs committee, where the Bill will be at, to consider this issue this evening, to be briefed by the line Minister and the sponsor of the Bill, to receive presentations from both, and then for that committee to advise us on how to...

Simon Harris: I can only account to this House what I have been informed. I have been informed what I have relayed to this House by the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs.

Richard Boyd Barrett: This Saturday, there will be tens of thousands out on the streets again calling for this Government to finally impose sanctions, but the truth is the Government is using excuses because it is kowtowing to the US Government to prevent actual sanctions being imposed on Israel for genocide.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (5 Nov 2024)

Denis Naughten: I oppose the proposal to approve without debate the additional borrowing facility at the International Monetary Fund. Countries most vulnerable to climate change face not only devastating floods and other disasters but also crippling debt.

Mattie McGrath: I too support the calls for the occupied territories Bill to be passed. If necessary, we can sit on Friday, if the Government does not otherwise have the time. When to call the election is in the Taoiseach's hands. He has dithered about it for long enough.
