I have notice from Senator Nicky McFadden that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, she proposes to raise the following matter:
The need for the Minister of Education and Science to reverse the exorbitant price increase in school transport.
I have also received notice from Senator John Paul Phelan of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Science to outline the length of time that capital funding will continue to be unavailable to Good Counsel College, New Ross, County Wexford, owing to the ongoing discussions regarding school amalgamations in the New Ross area.
I have also received notice from Senator Joe O'Reilly of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Health and Children to staff and open Brookvale House residential centre, Milltown, Monaghan, County Monaghan, which it is intended will provide a sheltered housing environment for persons with special needs.
I have also received notice from Senator Pearse Doherty of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Science to approve designs for a gym at Pobalscoil Gaoth Dobhair, County Donegal, and allow the project to go to construction stage without further delay.
I have also received notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Science to give an update on the planned provision of a sports hall at Pobalscoil Gaoth Dobhair, County Donegal.
I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Nicky McFadden, John Paul Phelan and Joe O'Reilly and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senators Pearse Doherty and Brian Ó Domhnaill may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
