34 Miss Quill asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment when he intends to give legislative effect for the disposal of Irish Steel to ISPAT International; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4477/96]
The parliamentary draftsman's office is finalising the text of the legislation necessary to give effect to the sale of the shares in Irish Steel Limited to Ispat International. I hope to publish the Bill in mid-March and, with the goodwill of all parties in the House, to have it debated in both Houses of the Oireachtas by the end of March.
