1I refer the Deputy to my reply to Parliamentary Questions No. 27 and 37 of 1 December 2011. In my reply I indicated that while a preliminary regulatory impact assessment had been in preparation it did not prove possible to complete it for publication at the same time as the Bill. This was due to the exceptionally demanding EU/IMF deadline that applied and was met by the Government in publication of the Bill. The situation remains as also stated on that occasion, namely, that work on the regulatory impact assessment for the Bill is nearing completion and it will be made available in the near future.
