I move:
That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide additional powers for the Garda SÃochána with respect to surveillance; and to provide for related matters.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time." I am happy to fill the legislative lacuna on the other side of the House if the Government will facilitate it.

There is still too much work required on it.
