Credit guarantee legislation

Summary

Dara Calleary asks when the credit guarantee amendment Bill will be published and enacted; the Taoiseach promises publication before the summer but doubts enactment by then.

I have raised the credit guarantee (amendment) Bill on a number of occasions. The Minister, Deputy Bruton, and the Minister of State, Deputy Nash, have committed that it will include a provision for businesses whose banks are exiting the market. There are literally hundreds of jobs waiting on the enactment of this Bill. Will we see it before the end of this session, before the summer recess?
