I offer the Taoiseach in the spirit of constructive progress a copy of our Bill, which was published in May this year by Deputy Phil Hogan, namely, the Electoral Representation (Amendment) Bill. This would allow for the business of the House to be conducted by itself and for the filling of all casual vacancies within a six-month period. If the Taoiseach decides to come in with his own Bill next week, I will facilitate him. There is no need to go to the Supreme Court for a definition of "an inordinate delay". We can adjudicate on that here ourselves. All casual vacancies should be decided within a six-month period.
