In 2006, 32 Statutory Instruments were made pursuant to the Social Welfare Consolidation Act 2005, as amended. In addition, 13 Statutory Instruments were made pursuant to the Pensions Act 1990 as amended. To date in 2007, 18 Statutory Instruments were made pursuant to the Social Welfare Consolidation Act 2005, and amending legislation, and an additional 15 pursuant to the Pensions Act 1990. A list of all regulations made in 2006 and 2007 is attached.

While it was not technically feasible to do so in relation to the regulations made in 2006, all statutory instruments made by my Department in 2007 to date are available on the Department's website, www.welfare.ie, and also available on the Irish Statute Book website, www.irishstatutebook.ie. Following the introduction, in early 2007, of a new electronic statutory instruments system, all new regulations made are now available on these websites within a short time of being made.

In accordance with requirements under Section 3 of the Statutory Instruments Act, 1947 as amended, the making of all Statutory Instruments have been published in Iris Oifigiúil.
