Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

On the Citizens' Assembly on Drugs Use, I have not received the report yet. The practice would be to present it to the Cabinet and the Oireachtas and then refer it to an Oireachtas joint committee for further consideration. I am not sure whether that would be the committee on health or on justice, or both in the circumstances, but we will make that decision once the report is received. I would usually meet the chairperson as well and have a chance to talk through the report.
On Deputy Carthy's question, we are in discussions with like-minded EU states in relation to Gaza, Israel and Palestine. We are very strongly of the view that any action, if taken, needs to be on a multilateral basis and not unilaterally to be effective.
