RTÉ has reported that May 21st is a possible date for this to happen, but Mr Harris declined to confirm this at a press conference in Dublin. He said: “There is never a wrong time to do the right thing and the right thing to do right now is to recognise the state of Palestine. In the Dáil, Mr Martin also declined to confirm the May 21st date but said recognition of Palestine would be happening “in a relatively short time frame”.
