Vol. 216 No. 2

Business of Seanad

I have received notice from Senator Denis O'Donovan that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources to review the ban on drift net fishing for wild Atlantic salmon and if he will consider providing a limited licensing regiment for island and coastal communities in view of the recovery of the wild salmon stocks.

I have also received notice from Senator Ivana Bacik of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to provide an update on the provision of additional multidenominational school places in the Portobello area on the basis of recommendation A4 of the report of the advisory group to the national forum on patronage and pluralism in the primary sector; and if any progress has been made on the delivery of a new multidenominational school in the Portobello area for September 2013, either through the transformation of patronage or divestment model, or through recognition of the Portobello group as a new multidenominational school.

I have also received notice from Senator Paschal Mooney of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, as a matter of policy, to direct a one-off national audit as well as a detailed proofing mechanism to be carried out to ensure in future that no incorrectly spelt bilingual road signs are erected by road authorities.

I have also received notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Justice and Equality to ensure the retention of the district headquarter status of Glenties Garda station, County Donegal, and if he will give an assurance that there will be no further station closures in the county.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and they will be taken at the conclusion of business.
