English: New houses being constructed at the Israeli settlement of Eldad, south of Bethlehem in the West Bank. Settlements are illegal under international law, yet despite condemnation from the international community, continue to expand on Palestinian land. There are over half a million Israeli settlers now living in the Palestinian West Bank. If passed, the Occupied Territories Bill would make it illegal in Ireland to trade in goods produced from these settlements.
