I refer the Deputy to the Government's Legislation Programme for Autumn Session 2014 and set out below in tabular format, the list of those Bills for which I have responsibility; several of which I expect to be brought before the Dáil in the next year. The Bills are grouped into 'A' list Bills; those which are expected to be published this Session, 'B' list Bills; those which are currently assigned for or being drafted, but not expected to be published this Session and finally 'C' list Bills; those for which Heads are being prepared within my Department but that have yet to be approved by Government.
The Deputy will appreciate that I am not positioned to forecast when time can and may be made available in the Houses to debate a Bill at any given time, nor when Second Stage may be scheduled. Progression of legislation is, as the Deputy will be aware, subject to competing legislative priorities and various ongoing developments can affect the rate at which a Bill progresses.
