‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - UN Decade for Women. Signing the UN women’s convention
Summary
O’Rourke asked whether Ireland was the only European country not to sign the UN convention and whether it would sign that year. The exchange was interrupted by procedural objections and a brief argument; no answer was given.
Before leaving these questions I should like to ask the Minister if we are the only European country which has not signed the United Nations convention and can the Minister assure the House that we will sign it this year?
Comment on this
Now that Deputy Cooney has taken on the Deputy's role he is determined to take on the Minister's role.
