177. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform when the public service superannuation (miscellaneous provisions) (amendment) Bill will be published; if a date for pre-legislative scrutiny has been decided; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26694/18]

I refer the Deputy to my answer to PQ 24451/18 on the 12 June 2018.
When I wrote to the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform about pre-legislative scrutiny of the Bill earlier this year, the Committee responded indicating that, while it did not intend to undertake pre-legislative scrutiny of the Bill, it would engage fully on the draft legislation in the context of the formal legislative process.
This approach is likely to facilitate the passage of the Bill through the Oireachtas and I welcome the support of the Committee in this regard.
