Justice and aviation legislation

Summary

Bernard Durkan asks about the Garda compensation and Irish Aviation Authority amendment Bills; the Taoiseach says the former is due later in the year and the latter is not currently on the session’s priority list.

Bernard Durkan Deputy Bernard J. Durkan Fine Gael

The Garda Síochána (compensation for malicious injuries) Bill has been promised. Have the heads of the Bill been discussed or agreed at Cabinet? When is the Bill expected to come before the House?

The Irish Aviation Authority (amendment) Bill will have considerable implications for issues being discussed currently and will affect economic regulation in the aviation industry. Will the Bill be brought forward in the current year? Is it likely to be brought into the House before the end of this session, given that it will affect other issues in the aviation industry being discussed currently?

I take the Deputy's point. The Bill is not on the A list for this session. I cannot indicate when it will be cleared and produced. The Garda Síochána (compensation for malicious injuries) Bill is due later this year. Work is ongoing on it.
