Statistics and bail legislation

Summary

Bernard Durkan asks about the statistics and bail Bills; the Taoiseach says neither has yet reached Cabinet, though draft bail heads have been prepared.

Bernard Durkan Deputy Bernard J. Durkan Fine Gael

Two important tranches of legislation are promised, including the statistics (heritage amendment) Bill, which is of considerable importance. Will the Taoiseach indicate whether the heads have been cleared by Cabinet and when is it likely to come before the House?

I will return to my traditional inquiry on the bail Bill. How is it progressing? Is it winding its way towards this House? I emphasise its importance and the fact that we must go back to the 1960s for its origins.

No heads of the information Bill have come to Cabinet yet. That is a while away. The bail Bill is still on bail. The draft heads have been prepared but they have not come to Cabinet yet.
