Dáil
‹ Order of Business Recognition of Palestine
Summary
Brendan Smith asks for Government time to debate recognition of Palestine following a Seanad motion; the Tánaiste refers him to the Whips’ meeting.
As the Tánaiste is probably aware, Seanad Éireann passed a motion yesterday calling on the Government to recognise the state of Palestine.
Comment on this
The motion was proposed by Fianna Fáil Senator Averil Power and agreed by the Seanad without a vote. Could the Tánaiste commit that Government time will be allocated in the next sitting week to enable Dáil Éireann to discuss a similar motion?
