Minute's Silence for Israel and Palestine
Seanad Éireann — 2023-10-11
============================================================

Jerry Buttimer (CC), Labour Panel

The Leader has intimated that she is prepared to take a minute's silence now.

Lisa Chambers (FF), Cultural and Educational Panel

I propose that we have a minute's silence on behalf of Members of Seanad Éireann to acknowledge the loss of life in both Israel and Palestine and in Gaza over the weekend and the last couple of days. We send our thoughts and prayers to the families and communities of those bereaved, those who are seriously injured, and those dealing with the fall-out of the conflict that is still ongoing.
