Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

The criminal justice trafficking in persons and sexual offences Bill is to give effect to a number of international instruments on trafficking in persons and sexual exploitation of children. The heads have not yet been completed and therefore it is not possible for me to give the date on which the Bill will be introduced. The criminal justice DNA database Bill will be ready later this year. The heads should be cleared before the summer break and the Bill should be drafted in the autumn.
