Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 32. I will call Deputies in the order in which they submitted their notices to my office.
Requests to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 32.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the appalling level of road deaths, with five people killed on the roads over the weekend and a total of 273 killed since the beginning of the year.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to address the following matter of urgent national importance — the closure of the Seagate plant in Limavady, whereby more than 900 workers from counties Antrim, Derry, Tyrone and Donegal are to lose their jobs, and the necessity for the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment to outline his plans for increased co-operation between enterprise development agencies North and South, particularly IDA Ireland and Invest NI, as well as FÁS and the Northern Ireland Department for Employment and Learning in the area of skills, to ensure the creation of new jobs in the north-west region which continues to experience unacceptably high rates of unemployment.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss the following specific and important matter — the serious mishandling by the Minister for Transport of the announcement last week of new regulations governing the holders of second provisional driving licences which undermined the new road safety strategy, brought the law into disrepute and caused serious distress for thousands of young drivers and their families.
I seek the adjournment of Dáil Éireann under Standing Order 32 to debate the following matter of urgent national importance: the discharge of a highly suicidal person from Tallaght Hospital due to the fact that the HSE recruitment ban prevented the recruitment of a suicide prevention nurse, despite the fact that the resources to recruit the said nurse had been made available by the National Office for Suicide Prevention.
Having considered the matters raised, I do not consider them to be in order under Standing Order 32.
