Charles Flanagan (Laois, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I acknowledge the deliberations in this House which gave rise to the passage of the legislation in question in the course of the summer months. I had a meeting with the Courts Service this morning. Obviously, there are issues involved in the setting up of a new board. In this regard, I assure Deputy Pearse Doherty and the House that the council will be set up by the end of the year.
