At the outset this morning Deputy Martin spoke about the highly controversial issue of the industrial wind turbines proposed for the midlands, but he failed to put forward solutions.

Deputy Bannon is out of order. What legislation is that?

What legislation is that?

There is public interest.

I would just like to know the legislation, please.

There are three Bills under which this could be accommodated. Where are they at the moment? I am referring to the common arrangements for gas Bill and the noise nuisance Bill, because there is a problem of noise associated with industrial turbines.

The Taoiseach does not believe they are controversial in any way.

The third Bill is the EirGrid Bill. An extensive pylon network will be installed to take away the electricity. These are three important Bills under which new guidelines could be put in place. We are still operating under the guidelines from 2006, which were put in place by the previous Fianna Fáil-led Government.

I call on the Minister to reply.

Deputy Bannon is not so quiet now.

Give the Minister a chance to reply.

The Taoiseach dealt with the substance of this question in some detail earlier. With regard to the legislation, there are no dates at the moment for the noise nuisance Bill or the common arrangements for gas Bill. There is a date for the EirGrid Bill, which is next year. Deputy Bannon is right in stating that the Bill needs to be introduced, and we will see it early next year. That is my understanding.

Deputy Bannon should have pursued it before this morning.
