156 Mr. Gormley asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the plans, if any, he has to reform the criminal law in relation to insanity; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27160/98]
A Bill to amend the law relating to criminal insanity is at present being drafted in the parliamentary draftsman's office. The Bill is a complex one and I expect to be in a position to publish it in mid-1999.
