PIAB and Teaching Council bills
Bernard Durkan asks about Cabinet approval and publication dates for the personal injuries and Teaching Council Bills; the Minister says neither has reached Government and no timetable is set.
What is the progress in preparing the personal injuries assessment board (amendment) Bill to come before the House? Have the heads been approved by Cabinet and when is it expected the Second Reading will take place?
Similarly, have the heads of the teaching council (vetting and protection of children and vulnerable persons) Bill been approved by Cabinet and when is it likely to come before the House?
Comment on this
Deputy Durkan was lucky in the lotto for questions today, but not so lucky, unfortunately, in the Bills he has selected. Neither of those Bills, the PIAB Bill or the teaching council Bill, has yet come to Government and there is no set date when the Bills might be published.
