A couple of weeks ago, under the international tax agreement Bill that is on the floor, I raised an issue that Deputy Troy raised earlier today. It was brought to my attention and to the attention of the Minister, perhaps, by members of the south-east Dublin branch of the Labour Party originally. I understand that we have a hidden economy committee. Is there any intention to put that on a legislative basis?

Has the Cabinet instructed Revenue and the Department of Social Protection-----

This is not a matter for the Order of Business.

I did not get an opportunity to put the question previously.

I know, but there are other ways of doing so. A Topical Issues debate would be ideal.

As the Minister knows, it has been alleged that a major contractor and a recruitment company operating outside this jurisdiction are facilitating criminal behaviour-----

I must ask the Deputy to resume his seat.

-----in contracts for which the Government is responsible.

I am sorry, but there is a time limit. Only nine minutes are left and other Deputies-----

What is the Minister's response to-----

The Minister cannot respond to something that is out of order on the Order of Business. We have had it on-----

I asked about legislation.

What legislation?

On international taxation. I can see it on the clár. My question relates to Northern Ireland in particular.

Please, I ask for the Deputy's co-operation.

I gather that the heads were cleared last March and are being worked on. I will bring the Deputy's point to the attention of the Minister.
