Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

Another U-turn.

I wish to refer to three promised and threatened Bills. The first is related to Deputy Charles Flanagan's request to adjourn the House under Standing Order 32. Three Bills, the Criminal Justice (Surveillance) Bill, the Criminal Justice (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill and the Criminal Justice (Amendment) Bill were passed in the past ten months. Have all three been enacted fully? Has the Minister issued directions or regulations in regard to any aspect of any of the three Acts? Are they fully operational in accordance with the wishes of the House?
