I have also received notice from Senator John Whelan of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Health to outline the public health measures in place to monitor the growing incidence of TB in the community and the measures in place to monitor the level of TB in schools and other public institutions.

I have also received notice from Senator Fidelma Healy Eames of the following matter:

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Marie Moloney, Thomas Byrne, Mark Daly and John Whelan and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senator Fidelma Healy Eames may give notice on another day of the matter she wishes to raise.
