Sadaka appeared before the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Enterprise, Trade and Employment on 14 July 2021 at the invitation of the Chairman, to discuss trade between Ireland and Palestinian territory. Sadaka Board member Bertie Ó hAinmhire welcomed two guest speakers, Mr. Hugh Lovatt, a policy fellow with the Middle East and North Africa programme at the European Council on Foreign Relations, and Mr. Martin Konecny, Director of the European Middle East Project (EuMEP) in Brussels. Mr. Ó hAinmhire outlined the role of Sadaka particularly in the context of trade with illegal settlements in the Occupied Palestinian territory, and the fact that these settlements are now a major obstacle to any solution to the Palestinian question. Mr. Konecny and Mr. Lovatt provided a detailed statement to the Committee and answered questions from members. Before the meeting the Committee Cathaoirleach Deputy Maurice Quinlivan said: “The Committee welcomes this opportunity to engage with Sadaka, the Ireland Palestine Alliance, and looks forward to a wide-ranging discussion on trade between Ireland and Palestinian territory”.
