The Government has promised two legislative measures, a planning Bill and a Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill. When will they be brought forward? I raise this in the context of the concerns raised yesterday by the chairman of the National Asset Management Agency, NAMA, Mr. Frank Daly, about the quality of some of the housing in this country. Everybody is aware of the Priory Hall situation but in County Kildare at present the county council is examining an estate, Millfield Manor estate in Newbridge, in the aftermath of a dreadful fire that destroyed several homes. Will this legislation address the quality of the built environment, particularly in situations where public investment and, probably more significantly, public safety might be shown to be at risk?

The fire in Kildare was absolutely dreadful and I extend my sympathies to the families who were affected by it. The planning Bill the Deputy mentions has been renamed the Urban Regeneration and Housing Bill. It is due to be introduced shortly.
