Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I will answer one question while noting the Deputy's concern about the potential flooding of the Blackwater Valley, which we will take steps to assess.
On Palestine, the Government is working with all the regional partners in the neighbourhood on restoring the humanitarian corridor and calling for an immediate ceasefire to enable humanitarian goods to get in. On the broader issue, we announced an extra €13 million in funding via the UN agencies last evening, on top of the €16 million of core funding we give. We support a lot of human rights organisations and those who are working on the ground for peace and reconciliation between Arab and Israeli people who live in mixed cities.
