Gino Kenny
Ceist:200. Deputy Gino Kenny asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the National Digital Research Centre, NDRC, whose budget is paid entirely from State funds, refused to support an initiative to assist the fledgling start-up ecosystem in Palestine, citing NDRC's purported politically neutral status and yet has provided support and sponsorship to a programme of engagement with the start-up ecosystem of Israel, namely, the recent start-up Tel Aviv event held on the NDRC premises on 29 June 2016; his plans to influence the NDRC to co-operate in extending support to the Palestine start-up ecosystem or to cease support for the Israeli start-up ecosystem; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
