Pending child support and climate bills
Deputy Durkan asks about publication of the international child-support recovery Bill and the climate action Bill; the Taoiseach gives no date for the former and says revised heads of the latter will return to Cabinet before Easter.
My question relates to the international recovery of child support (Hague Convention) Bill whose aim is to implement the Hague Convention on the International Recovery of Child Support and Other Forms of Family Maintenance. It is crucial legislation. Has it been approved by Cabinet and when will it come before the House? My next question concerns the climate action and low carbon development Bill, an issue that is very topical at the moment and which has been referred to internationally. Have the heads of the Bill been approved and if so, when is it likely to come before the House?

There is no date for publication of the international recovery of child support (Hague Convention) Bill. The revised heads of the climate action and low carbon development Bill will come back to Cabinet before Easter.
