The Chief Whip did come back to me about it.

Yesterday during Question Time, the Minister for Finance said he had received on Tuesday a significant report on the reform of the regulatory sector. Will any arrangements be made to brief Opposition parties on this? From the tenor of what the Minister said, and said on other occasions, he clearly intends to introduce new legislation on the regulation of the banks and finance in Ireland. Could we get an indication from the Tánaiste if she has a time line for that legislation?
