Jack Chambers (FF), Dublin West

As the Deputy outlined, it is very clear what the legislation sets out to do. We have Ministers of State in the marine area and in other areas such as older people and migration who are going to be appointed and who want to get down to work. That is the context in which we are bringing this Bill through and trying to accelerate the timeline around it.
In response to Deputy Gibney, the Tánaiste responded to her party last Thursday on the ongoing drafting that the Government is undertaking on bringing forward a Bill of our own on the occupied territories.
Deputy Boyd Barrett raised the same issue as Deputy Nash, to which I have responded, on the time provided for the Bill. I have no objection to a wider debate on housing policy. I am sure that can be facilitated in the coming weeks. I am aware the Labour Party has tabled a motion on housing, so there is an opportunity to discuss housing in the House this week.
