‹ Order of Business Public sector standards Bill
Summary
Deputy Bannon asks when the public sector standards Bill will be introduced; the Taoiseach expects it next year.
Significant progress has been made on the abolition of quangos and the merger of various Government bodies since the Government took office. We have streamlined a lot of services and made Government smaller and cheaper to run. We promised a wholesale reform of the public sector, including accountability, performance and transparency in this area. When can we expect the public sector standards Bill to come before the House?
