Finance Bill and pyrite legislation
Róisín Shortall asks about publication of the Finance Bill and legislation establishing a pyrite panel. The Finance Bill is expected within weeks, while pyrite legislation is being prepared for publication this year.
I wish to ask about two items of promised legislation. First, what is the expected publication date of the Finance Bill? Second, with regard to the estimated number of 20,000 people whose homes are affected by pyrite, when will the legislation providing for the establishment of the pyrite panel be published?

I understand the Finance Bill is expected to be published within the next couple of weeks, but I do not have a specific date. The proposed legislation to deal with the issue of pyrite is being worked on.

The Minister is anxious to progress it as quickly as possible and I think he expects it to be published this year.
