Vol. 459 No. 7

Written Answers. - Enterprise and Employment Legislation.

Ivor Callely

Ceist:

131 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment the number of Bills published by his Department for each of the years 1992 to date in 1995; the titles of the Bills; the number of these Bills that were passed by both Houses of the Oireachtas; if he has satisfied himself with progress in 1995; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18689/95]

The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following tables. The Information for 1992 relates to the two Departments. Department of Industry and Commerce and Department of Labour, which existed immediately prior to the establishment of the Department of Enterprise and Employment in January 1993.

While I am reasonably satisfied with the progress which has been made on legislative work in 1995, I do expect to see an increase in 1996 in the number of Bills enacted for which my Department is responsible.
