Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 31. I will call on the Deputies in the order in which they submitted their notices to my office.
Request to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.
I seek the adjournment of Dáil Éireann under Standing Order 31 to debate an issue of urgent national importance, namely, the report of the Health Development Agency and the Institute of Public Health in Ireland which highlighted that suicide accounts for 30% of deaths in the 15 to 24 year age group.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to allow a debate take place on a matter of major national importance, namely, the failure of the Department of Agriculture and Food to adequately compensate the farmers of Pullathomas who suffered so badly in the terrible landslides one year ago.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to discuss the serious and unacceptable situation with the Cavan-Monaghan Hospital Group. Monaghan General Hospital is still off call since July 2002 and Cavan is unable to cope with all the non-urgent patient cases, leading to serious pressure on patients and families.
Having considered the matters raised, they are not in order under Standing Order 31.
