Billy Kelleher (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)

Everybody accepts it is a large undertaking involving approximately 1,300 amendments. We would like to get the legislation right as opposed to rushed. Obviously with the co-operation and input of this House - if we are all still here - I very much look forward to taking it through the various Stages. With the co-operation of all sides it could implemented in 2011. However, we first need to get it published and we are working on that.
