Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)

In regard to legislation the last time we left it we thought we had finished with it and it came back to us again. At the Joint Committee on Communications, Marine and Natural Resources the cathaoirleach and one of our spokespersons was going to look at the debate in the House of Commons in the order in council process. I am interested to know where that is at as we were trying to finish before the start of the partnership government in Northern Ireland. Obviously the legislation is very important for the Foyle and Carlingford fisheries. Along with the Single Market Bill on electricity it represents the tangible results of North-South co-operation in a very important area.
