Legislative Measures
Dail Éireann — 2025-10-21
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

Like many others in the House, I welcome the fact that a peace plan has taken some form. I am very concerned about the fragility of it. Dozens of people have been killed even since the ceasefire. As the Tánaiste noted, extra-judicial killings are to be condemned as well, so undoubtedly the peace is very fragile. As with any peace, a ceasefire is only part of it. A political solution needs to be a part of it too and part of that needs to be ensuring the application of international law. Therefore, it should remain the position of the Irish Government that in the occupied territories, the illegal settlements need to be treated as illegal and the occupied territories Bill needs to give effect to that.
