Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

I ask about the misuse of drugs (amendment) (No. 2) Bill, which provides for the establishment of supervised injection facilities. Will the Tánaiste give a precise timeline on when we will deal with the legislation? The heads were approved in January 2015 and there is a fear and suspicion that there is an undue delay in dealing with the issue. Could we have reassurance today that the Government is still committed to supervised injection facilities, that it has not resiled from that position and we will see this legislation soon? Will the Tánaiste indicate how soon that will happen?
