I wish to ask the Taoiseach about promised legislation. In respect of the protection of life during pregnancy Bill, has a decision been made yet or is it envisaged that Committee Stage will be held in plenary session in this Chamber or in the committee rooms? I am mindful that there is widespread interest in it. It is a sensitive issue and I imagine there will be a demand from many Deputies to participate on Committee Stage. Has the decision been made at this point?

I expect the Bill will be debated here on Second Stage when it comes back from the committee after the appraisal of the heads. It will be dealt with on Committee Stage by the committee, which anyone can attend. It will come back again on Report Stage and Fifth Stages in the normal way.
