Fair trade legislation timeline

Summary

Bruton asks when the proposed fair trade legislation will reach Cabinet and whether it will cover the Central Bank and banks. The Minister gives no date, saying he will complete his review and bring it forward as soon as possible.

John Bruton Mr. J. Bruton Fine Gael

When will the legislation which the Minister quoted be brought forward to Cabinet and ultimately to the House? When does the Minister expect to make a decision thereon? Will he agree that one of the great merits of that legislation is that for the first time it will bring the Central Bank and the banks within the ambit of fair trade legislation, which is a major step forward?
