Can the Taoiseach say when he proposes to deal with No. 12 on the Order Paper, the Civil Liability Bill?
Not this week anyway. A great deal depends on the progress we make. It is intended to dispose of it in this session.
Is it not a Committee Bill? Would the Taoiseach not consider having the Second Stage, which would really be a formality, some time in the near future, and then having a Committee to deal with it?
I shall consider it.
The same might apply to No. 17, the Defamation Bill.
I shall consider it.
