Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

It is listed for this session and it is hoped to take it in this session. A number of legislative measures will be required under the IMF-EU agreement and these are time-lined; in other words, they must be introduced by particular dates to comply with the conditions of the agreement. I am examining the range and extent of what is required in consultation with the Office of the Attorney General and the facilities and resources it has to produce this. I will inform the House as soon as I have a clear picture in that regard. It is critical that we be in compliance with those time-lines to comply with the conditions of the IMF-EU bailout. Therefore, legislation that is already listed might not receive the same priority but I will give the House full information when I know the range and extent of what we must do.
