The United Nations Human Rights Council has adopted a resolution calling on States to warn companies of the risks arising from doing business in the Israeli settlements in Palestine. The unlawfulness of these settlements has long been recognised...Greater attention is now being paid to the implications for business who may operate in or contribute to the establishment of settlements...Related to this, the Council also asked the other United Nations human rights bodies to take measures to ensure the implementation of the Guiding Principles on business and human rights...[An] interesting case in this context is that of Cement Roadstone Holdings, an Irish company with holdings that include an Israeli cement company which has provided materials seemingly used for the construction of settlements. A complaint to the OECD national contact point by the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign against CRH remains pending, despite having been submitted almost three years ago.
