Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

The pharmacy No. 2 Bill is being drafted. I do not have a date for its publication. It is dependent on the implementation of the new Act on the development of the framework for the proposed Bill as the pharmacy group recommendations relate to the pharmacy service, the contractual matters and the development of that framework. The Bill will depend on how these issues evolve at HSE level.

On the criminal justice United Nations Bill, the examination of the legislative requirements which are not being dealt with in other Bills is ongoing with a view to including heads in an appropriate Bill. I think that Bill is some time away.
