Mary Coughlan (Donegal South West, Fianna Fail)

Legislation is promised. A meeting of the relevant Ministers will take place next week. There are two aspects of it under my Department. One, in the overall context, is the legal preparation for the Bill. The other regarding the National Consumer Agency is outside the legal remit and is a matter of protocol between the industry and the criteria set down for management. There is a commitment to provide legislation and we hope to arrange a pro forma meeting among everyone for Wednesday or Thursday next week.
