Written Answers. - Implementation of Legislation.

Proinsias De Rossa

Question:

91 Proinsias De Rossa asked the asked the Taoiseach, in respect of legislation passed under the aegis of his Department which required (a) a ministerial order or (b) an order of the Oireachtas, to implement (1) the entire Act or (2) any section of an Act, if he will list any Act or section of an Act which has not yet been implemented; and the reason for any such non-implementation.

The Irish Sailors and Soldiers Land Trust Act, 1988, contains a provision enabling the Taoiseach, by order, to nominate a date — not being earlier than the day on which the Irish Sailors and Soldiers Land Trust is dissolved pursuant to a British Act entitled The Irish Sailors and Soldiers Land Trust Act, 1987 — on which the following will be repealed: (a) section 4 of the Irish Land (Provision for Sailors and Soldiers) Act, 1919, and (b) the Land Trust Powers Act, 1923. It is not envisaged that this provision will be activated for some time as the trust, while being gradually wound down, has not yet been dissolved pursuant to the British legislation.
