Spring Legislative Programme

February 2023

Published by Government Chief Whip Hildegarde Naughton TD in mid-January 2023, the Spring Legislative Programme contains 38 bills for prioritisation by government ministers.

The Legislative Programme contains the following:
• legislation for priority publication this session (21);
• legislation for priority drafting this session (17);
• all other legislation (64);
• bills currently on the Dáil and Seanad order paper (30);
• bills published since the current government entered office (145); and
• bills enacted since the government entered office (132).
Upon publication of the programme, Naughton said: “Our aim through the Legislation Programme for the coming Dáil term is to continue to protect the squeezed middle during the ongoing cost of living crisis and continue to take further action on housing to ensure that those who want to own their own home have the option to do so, particularly those in their 20s and 30s.”
