‹ Order of Business EirGrid Bill publication
Summary
Deputy Heather Humphreys asked whether the EirGrid Bill could be published sooner amid concern about pylons and grid upgrades. The Taoiseach said publication was planned for the following year but related concerns would be examined.
What plans are in place to publish the EirGrid Bill to establish EirGrid in primary legislation? Would it be a good idea to publish it now given the current public concern regarding pylons and upgrading the grid?
Comment on this
The EirGrid Bill is not due to be published until next year, but this does not mean that issues of concern to many people will not be the subject of some serious discussion and analysis.

Will it be Fine Gael's way or the Labour Party's way?
