Written Answers. - Courts Bill.

The Courts (Supplemental Provisions) (Amendment) Bill, 1984, which lapsed with the dissolution of the 24th Dail on 21 January 1987, contained proposals for changes in the area of judicial pensions. I have at present under consideration the question of introducing legislation in that area either by way of reintroduction of the 1984 Bill or otherwise. I am not yet in a position to announce what proposals I may have nor when the legislation is likely to be initiated.
