The Government promised a Brexit omnibus Bill that would involve multiple pieces of legislation from various Departments. Therefore, it is possible for Departments to have more than one Bill before a House at the same time.

I have previously asked about the Judicial Council Bill 2017, which is long-promised and long-awaited legislation to ensure uniformity across the Judiciary, which is very important. I was told that, since the Judicial Appointments Commission Bill was before the Seanad, another Bill could not be progressed. When will the Judicial Council Bill be presented to this House and when will it be enacted?
