Ivana Bacik (LAB), Dublin Bay South

I add my voice to those who have expressed a desire to see a debate on Palestine in this House in light of the outrageous conduct of the Israel Defense Forces in recent days and indeed in recent hours in Jenin. There has been concerted cross-party support here for the rights of the Palestinian people and, in particular, for the Bill that was started in the Seanad by Senator Frances Black, which we in the Labour Party and other parties supported. I refer to the Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill, which seeks to ban the import of goods from occupied territories. Passing that Bill in this House would be an important solidarity gesture.
