Written answers

I propose take Questions Nos. 102 and 203 together.

I refer the Deputies to the details of my answer to Question No. 407 of 8 February 2005. I have nothing further to add to that reply other than to say that I intend to bring proposals with regard to the reform of the law on defamation to Government in the near future.
