John McGuinness (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fianna Fail)

The company law consolidation Bill is expected sometime this year and I understand it will contain 1,300 or 1,400 sections. When I asked the Taoiseach about this recently, he stated it might be possible to give Members the opportunity to debate in the Chamber those sections or pillars that have been completed. The Tánaiste should indicate what indications are in place for such a debate to take place and what is the current status of the Bill.
