261 Deputy Fergus O’Dowd asked the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism the number of days, in relation to every Bill and Act produced by his Department since 1997 to date in 2008, between their publication and their introduction into either Seanad or Dáil Éireann, with the name of the sponsoring Minister; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15180/08]

The material the Deputy seeks is available on the Oireachtas website. The website provides chronological information on the presentation, and consideration by the Dáil and Seanad, of all Bills and Acts, including those introduced by my Department since its establishment in June 2002. The link to the information is www.oireachtas.ie and then continue to the legislation link.
