Will the Tánaiste confirm that legislation relating to the unified patent court will be published in the next session? Does the Government still intend to proceed with a referendum on the issue in the autumn?

I cannot give the Deputy a fix on when the legislation on the patent court will be introduced. I understand the legislative committee is meeting today and that this is one of the issues being considered.
