Does Deputy Bernard J. Durkan propose to raise the same issue?

No. The family law Bill has been promised to update and improve family law legislation and provide for greater clarity in this area. What stage has the preparation of the Bill reached? Have the heads been approved by the Cabinet? When is the Bill likely to be brought before the House?

Similarly, the purpose of the insurance Bill is to provide an alternative statutory regime for those insurance companies not covered by the solvency II directive. This is a moot point as it covers a wide area of credit insurance. Have the heads of the Bill been approved by the Cabinet and when is it likely to be brought before the House?

While the heads of the insurance Bill have not yet been cleared by the Cabinet, it is expected to be published later this year. I do not have a publication date for the family law Bill, but I will advise the Deputy of the stage the work has reached.
