I propose to take Questions Nos. 42 and 44 together.
In response to a similar question today from Deputy Cuffe, I indicated that the deadline for the public consultation to regulate charities, expired on 28 May 2004 and stated that, within the deadline, my Department had received 75 submissions and that a list of those who responded could be viewed on the dedicated charities regulation web page of my Department's website, www.pobail.ie.
I invite Deputies to visit this web page. The main steps to be taken, in moving forward with concrete action, are to be found on the web page, for which the URL is http://pobail/en/CharitiesRegulation. This page includes, under response to public consultation, the information sought about the number of submissions received and, under press releases, information on the expected timeframe for publication of the proposed charities regulation Bill — the current best estimate being end 2005.
