I have been seeking time in the Dáil to introduce the Bill because it is ready to proceed. The Deputy may have noted that the position of chief executive officer of the new policing authority was advertised two or three weeks ago. We also intend to establish a panel of individuals to be appointed to the authority. I expect that the legislation will be debated as a priority as soon as the Dáil returns, having been concluded in the Seanad.
