Vol. 594 No. 2

Request to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.

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.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the dispute involving the disabled drivers medical board of appeal at the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dún Laoghaire resulting in the postponement of assessment of appeals by disabled persons who were refused a primary medical certificate.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the need to combat the drive by employers to maximise profits at the expense of workers' jobs and living conditions as evidenced by the fact that Irish Ferries workers are obliged to strike today in defence of their jobs and An Post workers have been obliged to ballot for industrial action, also in defence of jobs.

Having considered the matters raised, I do not consider them to be in order under Standing Order 31.
