I propose to take Questions Nos. 21 and 46 together.

The State Airports (Shannon Group) Bill 2014 was circulated to relevant Government Departments on Monday last, 31^st March along with a draft Memorandum for Government for any observations by those Departments prior to seeking the Government's approval to publish the Bill. Subject to such approval, I expect that the Bill will be printed and published later this month and I hope that it can be enacted by the summer recess.
