Trevor Sargent (Dublin North, Green Party)

The protection of employment (exceptional collective redundancies) Bill is more essential than ever. The announcement by Cadbury's is even more reason to bring it forward urgently. Is the promise of 2007 an indication it will happen before the general election? Can the Tánaiste clarify that Bills down for 2007 are now effectively not being promised because they will come after the general election? In the context of 2007, can he give an indication of the difference between pre and after the general election?
