I propose to take Questions Nos. 101 and 102 together.
Since 2011 my Department has sponsored six items of legislation, as set out in the table below.
Post-enactment scrutiny was adopted for the duration of the 31st Dáil through Standing Order 141A, effective from 5 November 2013, and was adopted by Standing Order 164A for the 32nd Dáil. In that light, the requirement to report does not apply to the first three pieces of legislation listed as they pre-date the requirement.
The post enactment reports made under Standing Order 164A for my Department are as follows:
- Diplomatic Relations (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2017 was laid with the Oireachtas Library on 13 December 2018.
- Protection of Cultural Property in the event of Armed Conflict (Hague Convention) Act 2017 was laid on 29 March 2019.
My Department will comply with future review requirements on each piece of legislation when they fall due. This includes the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Consequential Provisions) Act 2019.
