Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I note that the Government Whip has produced a list of 16 Bills to be published by the end of the summer session. The document for the spring session contained 17 Bills, eight of which were not published. There are eight new Bills in section A. Will the Government publish those 16 Bills in the next session of ten or 12 weeks? On the last three or four occasions, the Government failed to publish even 50% of the Bills proposed.

An independent and objective report published yesterday by the ESRI recommended there be no Government splurge before the next election.
