Bankruptcy legislation commitment
Deputy Mathews welcomes the Tánaiste’s assurance that one-year bankruptcy legislation will be enacted and operational before Christmas, but the Chair notes that he has not asked a question.
I welcome the Tánaiste. I particularly welcome the absolute assurance she gave that the legislation for one-year bankruptcy will be enacted and operational before Christmas. It is wonderful to hear her say that, as the commitment is now on the record, double-underlined.
Deputy Bannon reminds me of the story of the diplomat who was described as the guy who could tell someone to go to hell in such a way that the person would look forward to getting there.
