In light of the position outlined by Deputy Kenny and the response of the Tánaiste, pending delivery on the Government commitment to legislative action, I will postpone moving First Stage of this Bill.

I do not wish to move First Stage now, but wish to leave it on the Order Paper so that if we do not get the promised action we can move it.
