Seanad
‹ Order of Business Government legislative programme
Summary
The Leader attributes the slow flow of legislation to drafting work and plans to consult the Government Whip and Attorney General.
It will happen from next year and 80% will go to local authorities.
My information is that only one piece of new Government legislation has been presented since the beginning of this year. We do not have an explanation other than the fact that there is a high volume of Bills that are going through the drafting process in the Office of the Attorney General. I will have a meeting with the Government Whip and the Attorney General tomorrow afternoon so I will be in a better position to say what Bills will come down the line to us and when.
