I understand the issue of symphysiotomy was to be raised at this morning's Cabinet meeting. Can the Taoiseach tell us when he will publish the second part of Professor Oonagh Walsh's report? I believe he has had it since the end of May. Is he in a position to name the judge who is to be appointed to engage in a mediation process with the victims? Can he give us details of her terms of reference? Can he give us some idea of how long that process might take?

Yesterday marked the first of 16 days of action regarding violence against women. As the Taoiseach knows, this is an annual campaign. The programme for Government includes a commitment to "introduce consolidated and reformed domestic violence legislation". I have raised this matter with the Minister for Justice and Equality on several occasions. He has repeatedly told me he has more urgent matters on his agenda in respect of the troika programme. As we exit the bailout programme, can the Taoiseach tell me when we might expect to see this long-awaited legislation? As he knows, the issue of violence against women affects at least one in five of our women. That is a conservative estimate.

The symphysiotomy question is being dealt with by the Government. The Cabinet decided this morning to appoint Judge Yvonne Murphy, who is a respected judge, to engage with the insurance companies about putting together a fund from which women whose lives have been affected by symphysiotomy will be dealt with. I understand that the Minister for Health and the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch, were due to make a statement about this matter at a press conference at 4.30 p.m. All the details will be given there. The Walsh report will be published after Judge Murphy reports and the Government decides on the options. I do not expect that will take too long. There is a known number of people involved in this. I should also mention that the lifting of the Statute of Limitations bar, which had been requested, will not happen. The Government has decided, on the basis of very clear advice, that it should not happen. Judge Murphy will deal with the various groups, the women involved and the insurance companies in respect of setting up a fund. I am quite sure the full details have already been given by the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch, and the Minister, Deputy Reilly.
