When will the criminal justice (miscellaneous provisions) Bill be brought before the House? Will it include any provisions concerning political policing?

We cannot deal with the contents of a Bill.

Does the Taoiseach think that is necessary in the context of the use of significant Garda resources to terrorise a working class community at the moment? Four people were arrested this morning.

The Deputy is asking about a Bill.

Four people were arrested yesterday and four people were arrested on Monday.

The Deputy should please respect others who are waiting.

A 14 year old was arrested today by six gardaí.

Did the Deputy not hear me? Would the Deputy please resume his seat?

Yesterday, a 16 year old was arrested by ten gardaí.

I will not call the Deputy again if that is the way he is going to carry on.

A 12 year old was arrested also.

The Deputy is asking about a Bill and I am getting him the answer.

This must be discussed. It is a very serious attack on the right to protest.

Please switch off the microphone. I ask the Deputy to resume his seat.

It is a very serious attack on the right to protest.

I will have to ask the Deputy to resume his seat.

This is in relation to the criminal justice Bill.

Resume your seat and do not be play-acting here. Will the Taoiseach answer the question about the Bill?

I do not have a publication date for the criminal justice Bill that the Deputy has asked about.
