Coroners Bill

Summary

Deputy Neville asks when the long-delayed Coroners Bill, including suicide hearings provisions, will return; the Taoiseach says it remains at Committee Stage and will provide an update.

Dan Neville Fine Gael

For many years, there has been concern in respect of suicide hearings in coroners' courts. The Coroners Bill was first published in 2007. When is it likely to re-enter the Chamber for completion?

I understand the Bill is still on Committee Stage. I must revert to Deputy Neville on this. I recognise the Deputy's experience in this matter, which is an issue of continuing concern. I will revert directly to Deputy Neville on when the Bill might get back in.
