Middle East
Dail Éireann — 2024-05-09
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

It is welcome that the Government has made this commitment. The point is, in some ways, down to the timeframe. It is also down to the substance of the intervention, when Ireland makes it. We want it to be as strong as possible. The ICJ has made it clear in previous rulings that there is no specific timeframe in which a state can intervene. In other words, a state can intervene at any stage.
