I wish to ask the Taoiseach about the promised legislation on human trafficking. During the summer, the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform made available draft heads of a trafficking Bill, promising that we would see the full draft legislation before year's end. It no longer looks like that will happen. When will we see that draft legislation and when will we have a chance to debate it in the House? We remain the only EU country not to have defined human trafficking in legislation and that must be remedied.
