I refer to three items, the health information Bill, the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill and the housing regulation Bill. There is also the legislation on EpiPens. Táimid ag fanacht leis an health information Bill le tamall fada anois agus tá sé ar an gclár le tamall fada anuas fosta. The Bill has been designed to provide a legislative framework for the better governance of health information initiatives. I understand the alarming rate of suicide is one of the issues that could be addressed. Can we have a timeframe for its introduction, given the seriousness of the issues with which it deals? While it is not always the case, I note that legislation is sometimes promised but is then sent back to be redrafted before the process of pre-legislative scrutiny begins. Before the Government runs out of time, will it speed up the work on some of these issues?

On the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill, homelessness is one of the biggest issues. Mar atá a fhios ag na Baill agus ag an Taoiseach, tá a lán daoine ag stopadh ar na sráideanna gach oíche sa chathair seo agus ar fud na Stáite agus fuair an fear bocht sin bás cúpla oíche ó shin. Dúirt an Taoiseach go raibh sé ag caint le daoine nuair a bhí sé ag siúl thart agus bhí mise ag caint le daoine fosta. There are two separate Bills which have been promised on this issue. Will the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill be brought forward as a matter of urgency? When will the housing regulation Bill be published? Can we have a sense of the timeframe involved?

The Minister for Health met the mother of a young woman-----

To what legislation does this refer?

The EpiPen legislation promised by the Minister for Health who met the mother of Emma Sloan who died from anaphylaxis. The Minister promised legislation in 2015 to deal with the issues raised by her. There is not enough education or information available and lives can be saved through the introduction of legislation and the provision of EpiPens and information for the folks involved. The legislation is at an early stage, but, given that the Minister has made a commitment which I welcome and that the mother of the child has been so active in trying to ensure no other child suffers the same fate, perhaps we might have a sense of when there will be the wider availability of life-saving EpiPens and when the new education programme will be rolled out.

Tá a fhios ag an Teachta gur thug mé freagra ar a chéad ceist - an Bille leighis a bhí sé ag caint faoi - cúpla seachtain ó shin. Luadh go mbeidh sé foilsithe roimh deireadh samhraidh na céad bliana eile. Tá neart oibre déanta agus le déanamh ar an mBille sin.

The housing regulation Bill and the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill will both be seen by the end of spring or early summer. It means that we must deal with the emergency in respect of decisions the Government has already made. The Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, Deputy Alan Kelly, will meet the groups in Dublin on Thursday and this will be followed by a meeting with the Cabinet sub-committee on Monday. We will take whatever decisions we must take on Tuesday to make this more effective.

I cannot answer the question about the good lady whose daughter died, but I will have the Minister for Health communicate with the Deputy.

That is appreciated.
