Sexual offences and alcohol Bills

Summary

Deputy Durkan asks about Cabinet approval and timing for the criminal law (sexual offences) and public health (alcohol) Bills; the Taoiseach expects the former later this year but has no date for the latter.

Bernard Durkan Deputy Bernard J. Durkan Fine Gael

Could I ask the Taoiseach the current proposal on bringing the criminal law (sexual offences) Bill before the House at an early date and whether the heads have been discussed and approved by Cabinet? Similarly, I wish to inquire about the public health (alcohol) Bill. When will the Bill come before the House? Have the heads been discussed or approved by Cabinet and when are both Bills likely to be passed?

The criminal law (sexual offences) Bill is due later this year. I do not have a date for the public health (alcohol) Bill.
