asked the Minister for Local Government if he is now in a position to state when the proposed Superannuation Bill for employees of local authorities will be introduced; if he is aware that a number of road workers, formerly employed by the Dublin County Council, whose services were terminated on reaching the age of 70 years, are now without any means except the old age pension; and if so, if he will expedite the introduction of the proposed Bill.
