Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail)

Is the Taoiseach in a position this morning to give any indication to the House of the legislative timetable and the date for the referendum or the date for the fiscal responsibility Bill which, inevitably, will be required to come before the House, the timetable for the establishment of the Referendum Commission and any other mechanisms the House may deem fit to establish, for example, a sub-committee of the Joint Committee on European Affairs, in order to properly examine the details of the Bill and to hear submissions from public bodies?
