James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

Perhaps the Taoiseach, who, like me, is from a rural constituency, will provide an update on when the veterinary practices (amendment) Bill will be brought before the House. This is important legislation for the agriculture community. Farmers in the midlands region are putting considerable pressure on the Government to introduce the legislation. Will the Taoiseach provide an update on the position?
