822. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Justice the engagements her Department, or any agency or body under her direction, has had with the Palestinian Authority, any organ of the Palestinian Authority, or any engagement within, or with organisations in, the occupied Palestinian territory, in the years 2021, 2022 and to date in 2023; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

View answerMy Department is keenly aware of the grave humanitarian crisis in Gaza and my officials are working closely with colleagues in the Department of Foreign Affairs to ensure a coordinated national response to this volatile and evolving situation. This includes their work to assist in the evacuation of Irish citizens and their families who may require visa assistance.
The Deputy will appreciate that it is neither feasible nor appropriate to identify all circumstances in which engagement with other jurisdictions may arise. This is particularly the case in relation to security matters.
