I propose to take Questions Nos. 7 and 9 together.
The matters referred to by the Deputies have been discussed with the Department of Justice in the context of the monitoring committee on the implementation of the recommendations of the Second Commission on the Status of Women which is chaired by the Secretary of my Department. The outcome of those discussions is reflected in the recently published second progress report of the monitoring committee. If the Deputies require further information they should put down questions to the Minister for Justice.
