Will the Minister indicate to the House when he expects to be in a position to introduce the control on the sale of solvents which he mentioned and whether he considers that to be a matter he should proceed with urgently and separate from any other proposed legislation in view of the terrible damage being done to young lives?

That will be included in the Bill. The recently established task force of Ministers of State are considering the sale of solvents, glue and tippex sniffing. The Minister of State, Deputy O'Brien, is chairman of that group. Urgent action may be required in regard to that on a different level but, certainly, there will be a control mechanism in the Bill for the sale of solvents.
