James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

On two items of promised legislation, first, the noise nuisance Bill has been promised for some time. It is to give greater powers to local authorities to deal with the issue of noise pollution. It is on the programme for the past three years. The second item is the forestry Bill to develop the forestry industry, which is going through a very rough period at the present time.
