Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

I propose to take Questions Nos. 5 to 7, inclusive, together.

The legislative priorities of the Government are set out in the legislative programme published on 29 January. My Department has one item of legislation on the C list, the Statute Law Revision Bill, the purpose of which is to review local and personal and private Acts enacted prior to 6 December 1922. While it is not possible to give a final estimate, it is hoped the heads of the Bill will be submitted to the Government in 2009.
