Mairéad Farrell
Question:844. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if the IDA plans to appoint a business development consultant to establish a presence in Israel; if his views or that of his Department were sought in advance of this announcement; his views on whether it is appropriate to promote and advance Ireland’s trade with Israel (details supplied); his views on the conclusions of a recent report by Israel’s largest human rights group that the Israeli Government perpetuates the supremacy of one group of persons over another and therefore that Ireland could end up supporting an apartheid regime of occupation; if he will consult his colleague the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise Trade and Employment in this regard; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
