I propose to take Questions Nos. 121 to 123, inclusive, together.

The heads of the Investment Funds, Companies and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2005 were drafted by officials of my Department. A diverse group of persons and bodies contributed to the drafting of the heads of the Bill. These include the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority, IFSRA, the Dublin Funds Industry Association, DFIA, the Office of the Director of Consumer Affairs, ODCA, the Competition Authority, the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement, ODCE, the Irish Stock Exchange, the Companies Registration Office, CRO, and some other members of the company law review group, CLRG, which in turn, in certain instances, consulted other interests. Following approval of the draft scheme by Government, the Bill was drafted by officials of the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel in consultation with officials of the Office of the Attorney General and officials of my Department.

No moneys have been paid to any person or body in connection with the drafting of the Bill.
