I hope we will have the July stimulus within the next three weeks, maybe within the next fortnight. The Tánaiste, the Ministers for Finance and Public Expenditure and Reform, I and others are working on the package and a special Cabinet committee will meet this week to go through the detail of the package. It will obviously have to be debated in the House and there will be legislation to underpin it. The financial provisions (Covid-19) Bill does not relate specifically to the stimulus package but will obviously underpin it. The Microenterprise Loan Fund (Amendment) Bill and the credit guarantee (amendment) Bill will be of assistance. We are also looking at a companies (amendment) Bill to deal with some immediate problems and acute issues arising from Covid that companies are facing.
