I refer the Deputy to my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 231 on 15th December, 2011. The case referred to has not yet received a hearing date and as the Deputy will be aware the scheduling of cases is a matter for the judiciary.

Reply to Parliamentary Question 231 of 15th December, 2011

The legal issues that bear on the case referred to by the Deputy are the subject of an appeal to the Supreme Court in another preceding case and, as they are sub-judice, I am constrained as to any comment I can make on the matter.
