On the health (transport support) Bill, the Taoiseach will be aware that the mobility allowance scheme has been under a cloud of smoke for the past 18 months, during which time the Government promised to bring forward legislation to deal with this issue in a comprehensive manner. When will we be able to give certainty in relation to this allowance to the people who rely on it?

On the wind energy regulations to deal with wind farms, the Government promised almost 12 months ago to introduce guidelines in this area. I have raised this issue on a number of occasions and have been continuously told that the Department is working on the guidelines. When can the people of this country, particularly those in the affected areas in the midlands, expect publication by Government of the guidelines for the regulation of wind turbines?
