I have notice from Senator Lorraine Higgins that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, she proposes to raise the following matter:
In light of the recent revelations of a former employee of NAMA (details supplied), the need for the Minister for Finance to refer matters to the Garda National Bureau of Criminal Investigation, if appropriate, in the interests of transparency and accountability for the taxpayer.
I have also received notice from Senator Martin Conway of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Social Protection to discontinue plans to put social welfare payments out to tender in order to protect rural post offices and the hundreds of jobs associated with them.
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.
