Public Procurement Bill 2012: First Stage

Deputy John Lyons

I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to require that social benefits be assessed in the context of public procurement and to provide for related matters.

An Ceann Comhairle

Is the Bill opposed?

Minister of State at the Department of the Taoiseach (Deputy Paul Kehoe)

No.

Question put and agreed to.

An Ceann Comhairle

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

Deputy John Lyons

I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

Question put and agreed to.
