In light of the debate last night on Dr. Michael Shine, and the fact that the Minister for Health and Children mentioned the cost of inquiries, with even small inquiries costing a great deal, will the Taoiseach tell us when the long-promised legal costs Bill will be brought in? We were promised by the then Minister, Michael McDowell, that there would be a curtailment of legal costs some years back. In spite of that the legal structure remains, impeding justice for many people.
