Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael)

When will the building society amendment Bill, which is on the pink list, be published?

As Minister for Health and Children, will the Tánaiste inquire into the reason for the delay in the publication of the report of an inquiry into the 95 deaths in Leas Cross, which has been sitting on a desk in the Health Service Executive since 7 February, to be checked for accuracy? In answer to a parliamentary question, I was advised it would not be published until the middle of April, which is a disgraceful length of time for such an important report to lie on a desk in the HSE. I ask the Tánaiste to inquire personally and insist that it be put in the public domain and debated in the House immediately.
