Willie O'Dea (Limerick City, Fianna Fail)

I have two questions. The Minister will be aware that the consumer and competition Bill is central to the Government's competition policy. When is its publication expected?

The programme for Government makes a number of commitments, some of which are legislative and some of which are administrative in nature, to deal with the issue of people experiencing difficulty in paying their mortgages. When will these measures be implemented?
