Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

On promised legislation, I refer to the Bill to update and consolidate company law, which will allegedly bring greater clarification and simplification to the companies code and modernise Irish company law through the consolidation of the existing 13 Company Law Acts, other regulations and case law. I wonder about the timescale, which appears vague. It is indicated that publication is expected but it is not possible to indicate it at this time. When will this be possible?

Will the Taoiseach indicate progress on the five or six most pertinent pieces of justice legislation, which are deemed necessary in order to make an impact on the area referred to by my colleague, Deputy Charles Flanagan, and by us all at one time or the other?
