Questions on Promised Legislation
3:40 pm
Charles Flanagan (Laois, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
-----the Deputy will be aware that there is an international EU deadline of 24 May. We are on target for that and I wish to acknowledge the co-operation of the House on this important reforming legislation.
The issue raised by Deputy Lawless is broader and I want to acknowledge his contribution, particularly his Private Members' Bill, in respect of it. An interdepartmental committee, chaired by the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, has met on a number of occasions. I have stated previously that the views of Deputy Lawless would be very welcome at that group. I understand that his Bill is currently before it. I welcome his interest in this issue, which is entirely constructive and helpful.
