Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)

Some legislation has been promised for some time, including legislation to amend the bail laws. It was promised over many years by the party now in opposition when it was on this side of the House and it now falls to this Government to do it. What progress if any has been made in the preparation of the Bill? When might it be likely to come before the House? Similarly the provision of a DNA database could be very helpful to the memories of Members of the Opposition-----
