Recognition of the PLO

Summary

O'Keeffe questioned Ireland’s recognition of the PLO in light of its recognition criteria. The Minister said Palestine is not recognised and asked him to table a separate question about the PLO.

Jim O'Keeffe Mr. O'Keeffe Fine Gael

Could I precede my next question by congratulating the Minister on his appointment and I wish him every success? In the light of the criteria which he lays down, how does he account for our recognition of the PLO?

We recognise the PLO arising from the Bahrain declaration.

I suggest the Deputy should table a separate question on that matter.
