I wish to make an inquiry about a second Bill, namely, the noise nuisance Bill.

It does not include mobile telephones in the Chamber, by the way.

The Bill that Deputy Bannon referred to relates to local government reform and the local enterprise boards. That will be next year. I referred last week to the fact that the noise Bill is still a way in the distance. We do not have it within hearing range at the moment.
