Ceisteanna–Questions. - International Agreements.

Asked the minister: the international multilateral agreements under the auspices of his Department which have been signed but not ratified or acceded to by the State; the date and place opened for signature in each case;...
I thank the Taoiseach for his reply. Would it be normal that his Department be consulted about other Departments engaged in discussions and negotiations in respect of international agreements of the U...
It seems from replies to similar questions to other Departments, the Departments of Foreign Affairs and Justice, Equality and Law Reform, there are some 40 items outstanding which would require in the...
Ceisteanna–Questions. - Proposed Legislation.
Asked the minister: the proposals for legislation being prepared under the auspices of his Department where heads have not yet been approved by the Government; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
When is that legislation likely to come forward?
We have a very busy legislative load. The Taoiseach will be aware that the Opposition parties were briefed by the directors of Campus and Stadium Ireland recently and that the whole project depends on...
Is it the Taoiseach's Department that is drafting this legislation even though the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Recreation will have responsibility for it? 
Arising from the Taoiseach's reply, can I take it that irrespective of whether the stadium project goes ahead – there are questions around that issue and we will know whether it is a viable project by...
No, we stayed in the centre of the pitch.
We are allowed to play the advantage rule.
If Deputies were to submit such questions they would be ruled out of order. The Taoiseach volunteered a statement on this matter.
Ceisteanna–Questions. - Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure.
Asked the minister: the number of occasions on which the Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure has met; when the last meeting was held; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
If I am allowed to ask, will the Taoiseach confirm a decision of that committee was that, on reflection, there was no desirability in establishing a special division of the High Court to process as sp...
Therefore, the announcement made on 17 November 1999 has, in effect, been abandoned.
If a paper in relation to that set of recommendations or conclusion was available, it would be most useful for future Administrations. Regarding the infrastructural blockage and delay, has the commit...
I am asking about the outcome of the decisions, not the content.
How many staff are permanently attached and assigned to this infrastructure committee and are working on a full-time basis? 
Are there any full-time staff from the Department of the Taoiseach working permanently on it? 
Is it correct to infer from what the Taoiseach said that a person has not been dedicated on a full-time basis to co-ordinating the task of the national development plan which is engaged in spending ap...
We need a change of Government.
I would like the Taoiseach to clarify one of his earlier replies lest the House is inadvertently misled. The Cabinet sub-committee on infrastructure co-ordinates spending in the region of £20,000 mill...
Private Notice Questions. - Industrial Action by ASTI.
On a point of order, perhaps we should wait for the Minister.
He is not the Minister, he is the dauphin.
There must be a procedure. We cannot have questions without a Minister. The Minister has been unavoidably detained, it is not his normal practice.
I welcome the Minister to the new millennium. He should cop himself on.
Order of Business.
The Labour Party has no objection to Nos. 21 and 22 being taken without debate but I would like the Taoiseach to clarify the position in respect of No. 23. Has the Taoiseach received legal advice to t...
The House shares a common concern that this matter would be dealt with properly and effectively and that there would be no ambiguity about it. Our legal advice is that in order to copperfasten the pro...
The Labour Party accepts that undertaking.
When will the House discuss the legislative proposals for Dáil reform to which reference was made recently in the newspapers? We understand the package of Dáil reform measures was due to be brought to...
Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill, 2000: First Stage.
I move: That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to amend the Freedom of Information Act, 1997, in relation to the status under and for the purposes of that Act of certain advices of ...
I move: “That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time.” Question put and agreed to.
Written Answers. - Irish Seal Sanctuary.
