Gardaí and personal insolvency

Summary

Joan Collins and Mattie McGrath seek clarification on whether Gardaí may use the personal insolvency process; the Chair and Simon Coveney say the issue is outside promised legislation.

Does the Tánaiste intend to introduce legislation to deal with the matter? If so, when will it be introduced? I would like to mention another important matter. Gardaí are not supposed to have any debts because of the implications this would have.

Is legislation to be introduced to allow gardaí to go through the personal insolvency process?

I repeat that the Order of Business is about promised legislation.
