Seán Power (Kildare South, Fianna Fail)

When we introduced this legislation, we said we would put this scheme in primary legislation on the advice of the Attorney General. On foot of a few changes we made before Christmas, we have made amendments which we will bring before this House. This legislation will cease as and from 31 December 2007 and it is our intention to have a new scheme operating from 1 January 2008.
