I propose to take Questions Nos. 12 and 13 together.
The Government intends to initiate Constitution amendment Bills on votes for emigrants and Cabinet confidentiality and these are being drafted at present. I am not yet in a position to indicate when the necessary referenda will be held but I expect it will be some time next year.
The Minister for the Environment proposes to promote debate on emigrant representation by publication shortly of the text of the proposed Constitution amendment Bill on votes for emigrants as well as outline proposals for the implementing legislation which will be required if the amendment is approved in a referendum.
The Minister for Justice is examining the Law Reform Commission report on the law of bail published on 27 September. When that examination is completed she will bring proposals, including options for any constitutional amendment, before the Government and an announcement of the Government's decision on the matter will be made in due course.
