I have received notice from Senator Denis Landy that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Defence to reconsider the closing down of the Reserve Defence Force base in Clonmel, County Tipperary and to relocate it to the old Kickham Army barracks; and if he will outline the cost of transporting RDF staff to and from Cork several times a week.
I have also received notice from Senator Lorraine Higgins of the following matter:
To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will update the House with regard to the registration numbers of the wastewater treatment systems under the Water Services (Amendment) Act 2012; and if he will indicate if he is willing to provide financial support for low income families for remediation works which may be necessary following an inspection under the said Act.
I have also received notice from Senator Mary Moran of the following matter:
To ask the Minister for Education and Skills to address the issue of a ten year old boy (details supplied) who suffers from Down's syndrome, arthritis, Down's arthropathy, sleep apnoea and hearing loss, who is not at school owing to parental concerns and has been refused access to home tuition.
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.
