Is legislation promised?

When will the legislation be introduced? We can duck and dive all we want but this is required to give full effect to the strategic investment fund.

Thank you, Deputy. Other Deputies wish to raise questions and we are constrained by time. I cannot allow speeches.

There is no need for Deputy Doherty to get excited. This legislation is being worked on and will be introduced. Certain technical issues have to be ironed out but it is at an advanced stage and will be brought before the House.
