Will the Taoiseach indicate the current position with regard to the children (amendment) Bill which concerns the provision of places of detention for children and juveniles? In recent times, there have been references in the courts to the dearth of such suitable places.

As regards my old perennial, when can we expect the bail Bill to be debated in the House? Have the heads of both aforementioned Bills been discussed and when are they likely to be passed?
