Call for Taoiseach to deliver on foreign aid vow
Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, Dr Seán Brady along with other bishops noted the continued demand by the public to meet the promise of 0.7% of GDP for aid.
“We believe the poorest nations of the world continue to look to Ireland to set the global standard for commitment to development aid. We also believe there is substantial support among the Irish people for a compelling and world-leading target, which will express their commitment to a more just and compassionate world,” he said.
