On legal matters, when is the legal aid Bill likely to come before the House? Have the heads been discussed by Cabinet? Is it likely to pass in the current year? The credit guarantee (amendment) Bill is a proposal to amend the 2012 Act but has it been discussed at Cabinet in preparation for introduction to the House? If it has, when are we likely to see it?
