‹ Order of Business Gas storage and mediation Bills
Summary
Bernard Durkan asks about Cabinet consideration and publication of offshore gas storage and mediation legislation; the Taoiseach says mediation heads were approved but publication is expected mid-next year, while gas storage legislation has not yet reached Government.
I would like to know whether the heads of the offshore gas storage Bill, which will provide a legislative framework for the storage of gas at depleted sites under the seabed, has been discussed by the Cabinet. Has the mediation Bill, which will implement the recommendations of the Law Reform Commission, been discussed by the Cabinet? Is it likely to come before the House shortly? What stage is it at?
