I have received notice from Senator Tony Mulcahy that, on the motion for the Commencement of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs to confirm that funding for the schools completion programme will not be cut in County Clare or any other county and to consider increasing funding for this very valuable service for children.
I have also received notice from Senator Mary Moran of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to address the role and clarify the position of her Department on the complaints procedure process with a secondary school.
I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion and they will be taken now.
