I cannot answer that question because, as the Deputy is well aware, the Attorney General gives advice to Cabinet which is not shared. The Deputy will have to take the Minister's word on the matter on this occasion. The Minister is prepared to do the regulations and they will be prepared for inclusion in the Bill. While the legislation is not on the priority list, it is on the programme list. I suggest it will probably be coming up in the next couple of months.
