§ Mr. DEVLINWhen will the Housing (Ireland) Bill be introduced?
§ Mr. SHORTTI am not able to say.
§ Mr. DEVLINIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the English Housing Bill and the Scottish Housing Bill have passed both their First and Second Readings, and that these Bills are now before Committee, the English Bill having made considerable progress. Can the right hon. Gentleman give some explanation why the Housing Bill for Ireland has never even been submitted nor a day announced for the introduction of it?
§ Mr. SHORTTWe hope to be able to introduce it on Wednesday or Thursday of next week.
