Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Lebanon in respect of the case. Also present was a lawyer from the department of defence in Lebanon because the Minister was in hospital with Covid. The lawyer was very conversant with the case. I made clear in no uncertain terms our grave concern at the delay in the progress on the case and certain aspects of it. Notwithstanding the separation of powers in the Lebanese judicial system, I pressed the need for us to have a clear process and that it would be transparent but also far more timely that it has been to date.
