A number of pieces of legislation which emanated from this side of the House were passed with the support of the Government side over recent months. I refer to the Bill to extend the power to the Financial Services Ombudsman to publish complaints records - the Central Bank and Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ireland (Amendment) Bill, which passed Second Stage last March.

I am advised by the Select Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, of which I am a member, that Committee Stage of the Bill cannot be taken until the Government brings forward its amendments and that the matter is currently with the Attorney General. Is there a timeframe for bringing this straightforward legislation through the Houses and having it enacted? Will the Minister also indicate when the Freedom of Information (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2012, introduced by my colleague Deputy Sean Fleming, and the Regulation of Debt Management Advisers Bill 2011, both of which passed Second Stage before the recess, will be brought to Committee Stage?

I understand the Freedom of Information (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2012 will be ready for progress in the middle of next year. I do not have a time line in respect of the other two Bills to which the Deputy referred, but I will ask the Whip's office to revert to him in that regard.
