Corruption Bill and election dispute

Summary

Thomas P. Broughan asks about the criminal justice (corruption) Bill, while the Taoiseach says he has no publication date. An exchange then follows over the Taoiseach’s allegation concerning past votes and Deputy Stanley demands its withdrawal.

When will we see the criminal justice (corruption) Bill? A few weeks ago, before the St. Patrick's Day break, I asked the Taoiseach about the Priory Hall situation. Can the Taoiseach give an indication if the resolution process will be happening in the next few months, given that people are still homeless?

Will the Taoiseach answer Deputy Thomas P. Broughan's question on the other issue?

The evidence shows the opposite.
