I propose to take Questions Nos. 278 and 279 together.
The County Enterprise Boards (Dissolution) Bill 2013, which was published on 31stJuly 2013, has been subject to the Oireachtas pre legislative scrutiny procedure. In addition, the Industrial Relations (Amendment) Bill, although not yet initiated, completed pre legislative scrutiny on the draft Heads in December 2014.
The following Bills were initiated by my Department, since 1stSeptember 2013:-
1stSeptember 2013 – 31stDecember 2014
Title of Bill | Date of Bill |
---|---|
Companies (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2013 | 8th November 2013 |
Industrial Development (Forfás Dissolution) Bill 2013 | 19th December 2013 |
Competition and Consumer Protection Bill | 27th March 2014 |
Employment Permits (Amendment) Bill 2014 | 17th April 2014 |
Workplace Relations Bill | 30th July 2014 |
Intellectual Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2014 | 31st July 2014 |
With regard to the Workplace Relations Bill the policy document 'Legislating for a World Class Workplace Relations Service'upon which the Draft Scheme of the Workplace Relations Bill was drafted was referred to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation for scrutiny in July, 2012. I also appeared before this Oireachtas Committee in July, 2012 to discuss the proposed Workplace Relations legislation.
