I propose to take Questions Nos. 190 and 191 together.

The Public Service Superannuation (Age of Retirement) Bill 2018 was published on Monday 9 July. It passed all stages in the Seanad on Tuesday 17 July and completed Second Stage in the Dáil on 7 November.  The Bill is provisionally scheduled for Committee Stage in the Dail on 11 December.  Ultimately scheduling of time for the enactment of legislation is a matter for the Oireachtas itself through the Business Committee, but my intention is to ensure enactment as soon as possible.
