On 24 October 2013, the Ministers for Health and Children and the Minister of State, Deputy White, announced a Government initiative to deal with the misuse of alcohol. The initiative aimed to deal with minimum pricing and the regulation of advertising. I note that the public health (alcohol) Bill is listed at number 102 on section C of the Government's legislative programme. This week is alcohol awareness week. Is the Taoiseach in a position to tell us the date or the likely publication date of this important legislation?

Unfortunately, I am not in a position to do so. I will have to report progress to the Deputy through the Minister of State, Deputy White.
