Before coming to the Order of Business I propose to deal with a notice of motion under Standing Order 31 from Deputy John Gormley. I call on Deputy Gormley to state the matter of which he has given notice.
Request to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.
I wish to raise under Standing Order 31 the following issue of urgent public importance. I request that the business of the House be suspended to allow time for a debate on the Dublin and Monaghan bombings in 1974 in the light of new evidence that there may have been RUC collusion, and I ask the Minister to give real consideration to a public inquiry into the matter.
Having considered the matter fully, I do not consider it to be one contemplated by Standing Order 31. Therefore, I cannot grant leave to move the motion.
