The Minister said that he is introducing a Bill. He did not say when he intends that the new agency will come into operation. Is he in a position to give that information?

As soon as the Bill is passed by the House the agency will be set up. I am anxious that it would be set up as soon as possible. I would hope that the Bill would come before the House in two or three weeks' time. If it gets through quickly we will get the index-linked funding moving.
