I have a second question, if the Ceann Comhairle will allow it.

Go ahead, Deputy.

Perhaps I will not ask it, after all.

The Deputy should get all his questions out of the way.

I want a proper answer to both questions, not one half-answer and the second question ignored. When is it proposed to publish the criminal procedure Bill to provide for the reform of pre-trial processes? There are people throughout the country whose mortgages are in negative equity. Houses are being repossessed and people being beaten up in their homes-----

All of that will be discussed when the Bill is brought forward.

People are aghast at what is happening. When will the Bill be introduced to bring some clarity to court procedures?

I do not have a date in respect of the criminal procedure Bill. I understand Second Stage of the electoral (amendment) Bill to which the Deputy referred was ordered last Friday.
