Question 71: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will bring forward good samaritan legislation as outlined in a recent Law Reform Commission report; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [34634/07]

The Law Reform Commission published on 29 November 2007, a Consultation Paper on Civil Liability of Good Samaritans and Volunteers. The Commission have asked for submissions on the provisional recommendations contained in the Consultation Paper. At the end of the consultation period, the Commission will issue a final Report. In that context, it would be premature for me to bring forward legislation on this matter in advance of the publication of the Commission's final Report.
