Electoral Commission Bill
McGrath asks whether the Electoral Commission Bill will address alleged referendum interference involving Atlantic Philanthropies; no response is given before Bruton answers his earlier health legislation question.
I wish to inquire about the electoral commission Bill. Vast sums of money have been invested by Atlantic Philanthropies in the three organisations that constitute the Yes Equality campaign. Will the Bill be introduced or will the Government allow such undue interference in the democratic process right up to the referendum?

Excuse me. It is not more misinformation.

The key issues relating to the health (miscellaneous provisions) Bill have been identified and options are being examined. The Bill relates to indemnity to provide for an appeal against minor sanctions and possible amendments arising from the Corbally judgment. It is not possible at this stage to indicate the Bill's publication date.
