Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Discussion
Ms Caroline Timmons:
I understand what the Deputy is saying. The sense of urgency in the Department has been demonstrated by the speed with which this Bill has come to pass, which has been on a timeline I have not seen previously. The Department is doing everything it can to progress all the measures the Government agreed in November. We have been working in the background with regard to senior counsel reviewing this matter. However, it will take a little more time for us to get there and we want to get that right. I ask that the Deputy bear with us in that respect.
