There is a great deal of public interest across the midlands on the topic of wind energy and wind turbines. It is a highly controversial issue as the Tánaiste may know from the media. There has been very little public consultation with communities on the issue. Will the EirGrid Bill that is coming before the House deal with these issues? My colleague, Deputy Penrose, is bringing forward a Bill on wind turbines. When can we expect to see these two Bills come before the House?

We cannot deal with a possible Private Members' Bill, whatever about the Government Bill. When is the latter Bill due?

The initial preparatory work is under way on the EirGrid Bill and it is expected that it will be published next year. The Environment and Public Health (Wind Turbines) Bill 2012 is a Private Members' Bill which presumably will be scheduled as part of our Friday sittings.
