- Select Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018: Discussion (5 Nov 2024)
Cormac Devlin: Today's discussion at this committee is extremely important and timely. The Tánaiste has answered some of the questions about the advisory opinion issued by the International Court of Justice in July and where we are today. I welcome those comments and the timeline given. Speaking of timelines, if it is in fact the next Dáil that deals with this Bill, with the EU and...
- Select Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018: Discussion (5 Nov 2024)
Micheál Martin: Regarding the Bill itself, I have a realistic perspective. I see the Bill as a reflection of the Legislature's opposition to the illegal occupation of the State of Palestine. I do not see the Bill ending the war, Deputy Carthy. We need to have a bit of perspective about this and be honest with the Irish people. Passing this Bill will not stop Israel's behaviour, unfortunately. We were...

Micheál Martin: The US wanted a ceasefire.
- Select Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018: Discussion (5 Nov 2024)
Micheál Martin: It did not get a ceasefire. This idea that, if we pass this Bill, it will have a seismic impact on Israel is, unfortunately, not the case. It will not have a consequence.

Jack Chambers: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Leas-Cheann Comhairle. I wish to draw Deputies' attention to a minor typographical error that my Department has noted in the Bill on page 161, line 14. A reference has been inadvertently labelled “89A(ii) of (iii)” rather than the correct version of “89A(ii) or (iii)”. I seek to invoke Dáil Standing Order 196 to request that...

Mattie McGrath: I move amendment No. 1: In page 9, between lines 18 and 19, to insert the following: “ “investment undertaking” includes a retail credit firm as defined in section 28 of the Central Bank Act 1997 and any other person who owns credit which is being serviced by a credit servicer as defined in section 28(2) of that Act.”. I am very concerned about the lack of...

- Select Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence: Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018: Discussion (5 Nov 2024)
Micheál Martin: It was in July. Obviously we had the recess in August. One of the immediate acts I took was around defence procurement, because I saw a publication of The Irish Times to the effect that there was a likelihood - I do not know where that came from within whatever sources were communicating to The Irish Times - that we would be purchasing equipment from the Israeli defence industry in terms of...

Micheál Martin: I do not really take lectures from your party in respect of our bona fide commitment to Palestinian self-determination and the rights of Palestinians. I would have more respect for your position if I had seen Sinn Féin be more robust in the United States, where it has considerable influence and raises a lot of money, but its silence in the United States on the Palestinian question has...
