Could the Taoiseach tell us when the terms of reference might come before the Dáil, whether we will have the opportunity to amend those terms of reference and whether they will be seen by survivors and advocacy groups? The Taoiseach is probably aware that there is significant concern among the survivors of the Westbank orphanage and some of the other Protestant institutions that they will be excluded from the terms of reference.

Could the Taoiseach tell us the progress of the Adoption (Tracing and Information) Bill? I understand it is due for publication some time in 2015 but it is a very urgent piece of legislation. I understand that it is complex but could the Taoiseach give a more concrete indication of when we might see it?
