The 'Israeli Settlements Prohibition of Importation of Goods Bill 2025' marks a critical step towards removing complicity with illegal Israeli settlements but it must include a full ban on all trade, both goods and service. #PassTheOTB

Tánaiste to include services from Israeli settlements in trade ban Simon Harris also said he wants to put pressure on the other 26 European countries to consider banning trade with occupied Palestinian territories.

Passing the OTB would be a historic step for Ireland to hold Israel accountable for war crimes. We must ensure this legislation entails a full ban on all trade with the illegal settlements – both goods and services, and that we need it urgently. #PassTheOTB

Irish premier defends decision not to ban services from Israeli settlements Micheal Martin said he has sought further legal advice from the Attorney General Rossa Fanning.

Taoiseach Michéal Martin said the movement of services is “genuinely more complex” than transferring goods. He has sought further legal advice from the Attorney General Rossa Fanning on the matter.

The Irish government’s version of the Occupied Territories Bill currently bans trade of goods with illegal settlements. Here's why campaigners won’t stop until the ban includes the provision of services.

Hundreds of Ireland's lawyers sign letter saying government should enact Occupied Territories Bill The open letter from lawyers on both sides of the border said that the Irish Government must enact the legislation to meet its obligations under international law.

The open letter, signed by some of the country’s most well known barristers, says there is no legal impediment to enacting the Occupied Territories Bill.

Call for urgent enactment of Occupied Territories Bill Senator Frances Black has urged the Government to move with urgency to enact the Occupied Territories Bill before the Summer recess.

Not a single piece of bread, glass of water, or medicine has been allowed to reach #Gaza since Israel resumed its bombardment and siege.

Ireland needs to pass the Occupied Territories Bill now. No watering it down, no delays and no half-measures. Enough is enough.

Irish Government urged to enact trade ban with Israeli settlements within a year The Irish government is being urged to enact a bill banning trade with illegal Israeli settlements on Palestinian land within the next 12 months.

Really excellent points here from Frances Black and the drafters of the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill

There's no constitutional reason to water down the bill and exclude services. Excluding services would be "an entirely political and policy choice.”

#PassTheOTB

Funny how FF election manifesto said the OTB would be amended.
Now it's going to be scrapped and apparently replaced by a much weaker alternative.
These people are professional liars.
