Vol. 582 No. 4

Requests to Move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.

Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order No. 31 and I will call on Deputies in the order in which they submitted them to my office. I call Deputy Deenihan.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the scrapping of the 2002 to 2006 arts plan which was included in the Fianna Fáil-Progressive Democrats programme for Government from 2002 to 2007, and the subsequent resignation of the director of the Arts Council, Mrs. Patricia Quinn.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the latest EU Commission instruction to the UK Government to clean up Sellafield. Some 1.3 tonnes of highly radioactive waste are out in the open air — a matter which needs to be debated urgently in this House.

Having considered the matters raised, they are not in order under Standing Order 31.
