Trevor Sargent (Dublin North, Green Party)

Given that this is the Minister for Finance's particular responsibility, will he let the House know whether the ethics legislation will be supplementary to the list we have in front of us of promised legislation, or how long will it be before it sees the light of day? I am referring to the arrangements of the Taoiseach and the Tánaiste to have new legislation.

I expected the citizens information Bill to have been published last Friday. Given that the Minister is here, perhaps he will confirm whether it was to be published last Friday and what has happened? Has a date been set for publication of the citizens information Bill?
