I wish to raise two topical matters. What progress has been made on the Teaching Council (vetting and protection of children and vulnerable persons) Bill? Have the heads of the Bill been cleared and when is the Bill likely to be published and brought before the House?

The climate action low carbon development Bill has also been promised. In view of recent events and the urgent need for this, will the Taoiseach give some indication as to when this Bill will come before the House?
