Question 172: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the fact that if the Climate Change Bill 2012 is not drafted in the immediate future it will not be ready for publication by the fourth quarter 2012; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this will not present an image of Ireland taking the matter of climate change seriously, will not give Ireland and advantage to implement measures to counteract climate change and that this will therefore threaten Ireland's potential leadership role in this area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 158 and 172 together.

I refer to the reply to Question Nos. 143, 144 and 156 of 13 June 2012 which sets out the position in this matter.
