Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)

There is a need because it was promised in 2003. It has now been promised for this session, so I hope the Taoiseach will comply with that. The heads of the national monuments Bill were agreed in 2003 but it appears to be listed as a Bill in respect of which heads have not been approved. Its publication date is now 2007. The Curragh of Kildare Bill was promised for 2003 and is now promised for 2006. The crimes Bill was listed in the legislative programme for 2003, although it was not possible to indicate then when it would be taken. It is still not possible to indicate when it will be taken. Why does it appear at all? Will there be any movement on it? The family law Bill was promised for 2004 and then 2006 but it is now promised for 2007. Is there any possibility of publishing that Bill by 2007?
