This is the second time I have asked this question and I would like an answer. I would like the Minister, Deputy Alan Kelly, to come here and tell the House when he intends to do that.

The second question is for the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Brendan Howlin. I was one of the lone speakers who opposed the sale of the national lottery. When is the lottery regulator being put in place, having been promised as a great white hope? I was totally against the sale of the lottery and I am still against it. I think it will come back to haunt us financially as well as in many other ways, and we are beginning to see the buds of that. When will the lottery regulator and the people's forum be put in place? I have stood by my word in regard to voting for the water services legislation and I expect the Minister to stand by his word. I would like an answer to both of those questions.
