I have notice from Senator Jim Higgins that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:
The failure of the Department of Education to provide adequate transport arrangements for a mentally handicapped child in County Mayo.
I also received notice from Senator Michael Lynch of the following matter:
The urgent need for the Minister for Education to sanction the replacement of the defective roof of the Gilson school, Oldcastle, County Meath.
I regard both matters as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected Senator Higgins's motion for today's Adjournment and it will be taken from 9.30 p.m. to 10 p.m. or earlier if the business ordered is concluded. Senator Lynch may give notice for another day of the matter he wishes to raise.
