I have received notice from Senator Tony Mulcahy that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Health to outline how his Department will support services financially for children with physical and intellectual disabilities in County Clare who are currently supported by the voluntary group, Clare Crusaders; and the reason this group which provides more than 10,000 hours annually of free therapy services for more than 50% of children with special needs in County Clare is not in receipt of funding from the HSE.
I have also received notice from Senator Paul Coghlan of the following matter:
The need for the Minister of State with responsibility for the Office of Public Works to take the necessary action to immediately initiate a scheme to slow the alarming large-scale erosion at Rossbeigh, County Kerry, and salvage what is left of the dunes.
I have also received notice from Senator Trevor Ó Clochartaigh of the following matter:
Go dtabharfaidh an tAire Talmhaíochta, Bia agus Mara léargas an bhfuil sé chun ciste eigeandála cúitimh a chur ar fáil d'iascairí ar déanadh damáiste dá gcuid báid agus trealamh le linn na stoirmeacha le déanaí.
I have also received notice from Senator Mark Daly of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation to outline the steps he is taking to protect small retailers and if he is aware that retail multiples are selling products at retail prices in their outlets at less than the cost that small shop owners are able to purchase the same product from wholesalers.
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.
