Clare Daly (Dublin North, Socialist Party)

Yesterday the Minister for Finance said the Bill dealing with the issue of fiscal responsibility would be before the House sometime before Christmas. Will the Tánaiste give us a more definite date? This is the Bill to deal with the six-pack governance measures passed by the European Parliament earlier this week which will have a major impact on the workings of the European Union. Also, when will the bankruptcy Bill be before the House? I believe it is also due for publication before Christmas.
