IRELAND intends to continue to advance with its legislation to ban the import of goods from illegal Israeli settlements.

This comes after more than a dozen members of the US Congress asked that Ireland be added to a list of countries boycotting Israel if the bill is passed.

Tanaiste Simon Harris said despite the opposition, Ireland “intends” to continue to pass the draft laws.
