To maximise the efficacy of the services provided by the Property Registration Authority, the Valuation Office and the Ordnance Survey office, when will the táillte Éireann Bill come before the House? Is it likely to be given some priority rating in this or the next session?

When is it expected that the apprenticeship Bill will be aired in the House? When is it likely to be passed?

I welcome the support from Deputy Grealish for the bail Bill which I have raised on numerous occasions in the past.

That Bill has already been dealt with.

In view of the number of incidents whereby people who have committed serious offences while on bail-----

I think the Deputy has made his point. There are many other Deputies wishing to contribute.

Considering this, will the bail Bill receive a priority that it has not received heretofore? I have been raising this issue in the House for the past ten years.

I have been listening to you for those ten years.

It has not been very effective by the way.

Deputy Durkan needs to change the tune.

The heads of the táillte Éireann Bill have been cleared but it will be next year before it appears in the House.

There are discussions going on about governance with the apprenticeship Bill. It is not far from being completed but I cannot say whether it will make it on to the programme in the next seven to eight weeks.

The Criminal Justice (Burglary of Dwellings) Bill 2015 is already in the House and the bigger bail Bill will be here next year. One can feed into the other.

I also have listened to Deputy Durkan for the past ten years raising this matter. We are making progress.

I raised that matter 25 years ago in a Private Members’ Bill.

You could be Ceann Comhairle yet Bernard.
