Companies can come on and off the UN database list but the question is what the point of having it is if it does not ensure that states act accordingly. The UN database sets out those companies that are deriving profits directly from the occupied territories, but it does not even cover all of the companies that are benefiting from Israeli war crimes. One company, Palantir, for example, has seen Irish investment increase since 2021. We are at a point where our holdings are increasing but the value is increasing exponentially. This is a company that has provided the IDF with the resources to conduct its genocide. Is Ireland still investing in that company? Are there plans to divest from that company?
