Bernard Durkan Deputy Bernard J. Durkan Fine Gael

When does the Government intend to introduce the criminal law (sexual offences) Bill, having particular regard to the attention given to this issue and that of child abuse on the Internet? Has the Bill been discussed by Cabinet and have its heads been approved? If so, when it is likely to come before the House?
