While the Garda Síochána (compensation) Bill in respect of malicious injuries is not due before the House this session, in view of its importance and its widespread influence, and given the number of members of the Garda who are awaiting the presentation of the Bill to the House, might it be reviewed again with a view to bringing its first reading forward?

Work is proceeding on this matter. The Deputy is correct when he says it is not due this term but in view of the representations he has made, I would be happy to have a look at it.
