Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

It will be published on 22 February. That has been very clear since we began discussing this issue at the start of January. Let us not try to create problems or crises where they do not exist. We have enough challenges to deal with in Brexit without trying to create new ones. We agreed - I hope, anyway - how the House might co-operate to get emergency legislation through if we need to. That set of legislation is more comprehensive than any other country has been planning for. My understanding is the legislation the French Parliament was considering was to give essentially emergency powers to a Minister to be able to act in an emergency. We have gone way beyond that. We have effectively produced 17 heads of Bill from nine Departments. We will publish a full Bill on 22 February and we will ready to go with a schedule to get it through this House if we need to get it done and put in place.
