Standing Order 164A of Dáil Eireann Standing Orders 2016 and Standing Order 168 of Seanad Eireann Standing Orders 2017 provide that "twelve months following the enactment of a Bill, save in the case of the Finance Bill and the Appropriation Bill, the member of the Government or Minister of State who is officially responsible for implementation of the Act shall provide a report which shall review the functioning of the Act and which shall be laid in the Parliamentary library."

I can advise the Deputy that between March 2011 and 7 November 2019, seventeen post enactment scrutiny reports ("PESRs") were prepared by my Department and laid in the Parliamentary library. The following document sets out in tabular form a list of the PESRs duly laid. 

My Department is in the course of preparing a PESR in respect of the Markets in Financial Instruments Act 2018 and I expect to be in a position to have this PESR laid in the Parliamentary library in the coming days.
