The Garda Síochána (compensation) Bill, concerning malicious injuries suffered by members of the Garda, has been on the list for some considerable time. Given the fact that between 4,000 and 5,000 gardaí have suffered serious and malicious injuries in the course of their duty, and given the Bill's importance, I ask the Tánaiste when it might be possible to bring it before the House.
