Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

The Curragh of Kildare Bill has been around almost as long as the Curragh itself. According to the Government legislative programme, the Bill is to be published in early 2008. Have the heads of the Bill been discussed or approved and to what stage has it been advanced?

To what extent have the heads been approved for the use it or lose it Bill, which is also on the Order Paper, and when are we likely to see it in the House?
