Can I get an update on when we are likely to see the climate Bill? How many Bills will be needed to provide for the announced changes in Irish Water? When are we likely to see them? Will a specific social welfare Bill be necessary to remove the PPS number provisions in the existing legislation? Given that an amendment to that effect was ruled out of order during the debate on the current Social Welfare Bill, I presume another social welfare Bill will be introduced to make this change. When are we likely to see that Bill? I would also like to ask the Taoiseach about the symphysiotomy redress scheme. It is proving impossible for some women to abide by the four-week timeline under that scheme. Will the Taoiseach look at extending the deadline of four weeks for people to apply for the redress scheme? It is just not possible to get the medical evidence in some cases.
