The Government approved the publication of the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill and the introduction of the Bill in the Houses of the Oireachtas on 8 December 2015. The Bill completed Second Stage in the Seanad on 17 December 2015. As you are aware, the last Dáil was dissolved on 3 February 2016. Bills that were before the Oireachtas lapsed on the dissolution of the Dáil. It is open to a new Government to have a lapsed Bill restored to the Order Paper and progressed through the Oireachtas.
