Question:403 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the widespread concern among many members of the architectural profession who are awaiting the publication and enactment of the Building Control Bill to ensure that their status, as architects, can be properly registered and regulated; if his attention has further been drawn to the operational and financial difficulties that this legislative delay is causing and to the lack of proper consumer protection for persons using the building industry and the services of persons purporting to be architects who are not properly qualified or who do not meet the qualification standard needed by his Department and the European Union; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
