I expect to circulate the Landlord and Tenant Bill, 1965, before the end of the month.
We have had this assurance several times before. The Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries had a hand in the Bill during his time in the Department of Justice. A number of Dáil Questions were answered and we were assured of the early appearance of this legislation. Now we are told we will have it before the end of the month. In heaven's name, can we take that as definite at last?
That is what I am promising the Deputy. It will be circulated before the end of this month.
