The sole Bill being prepared by my Department is the National Economic and Social Development Office (Amendment) Bill.
This Bill will provide for the dissolution of the National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) corporate framework which is no longer necessary. It also deals with related matters including the transfer of functions to the National Economic and Social Council (NESC).
Work is underway to prepare the heads of a Bill but it is not a legislative priority for Government at present as it is a technical change which does not impact on the essential functions of the NESC.
Questions Nos. 21 to 28, inclusive, resubmitted.
