Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 31. I will call on Deputies in the order in which they submitted their notices to my office.
Requests to Move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, that the Minister for Transport immediately intervene in the dispute between the Dublin Airport Authority and Shannon Airport workers to mediate an agreement that would satisfy all parties and put Shannon Airport on a sound economic footing for the future.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the decision to lift the toll barriers on the M50 by buying out National Toll Roads with taxpayers' money and substitute the physical barriers with a monthly or quarterly bill through the letter box. Daily commuters living and working in the catchment of the M50 are the target audience for what will amount to an additional tax in excess of €900 per year on what will become a wholly publicly owned distributor road.
Having given the matters full consideration, I do not consider them to be in order under Standing Order 31.
