Amharc ar fhreagraThe Domestic Violence Bill 2017 was published on 3 February and I understand it is due to start Second Stage in the Seanad next week. The Deputy will understand that it is not possible for me to predict the outcome of the legislative process with regard to this or any other Bill. However, my aim is that the Bill will be enacted as soon as possible this year.
