Business of Seanad.

I have notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport to consider providing assistance to bus operators following the removal of the fuel rebate.

I have also received notice from Senator Paschal Donohoe of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism to make a statement on any planned consolidation of national art galleries and the implications of such plans on the individual galleries.

I have also received notice from Senator Cecilia Keaveney of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Health and Children to advance urgently the issue of consumables labelling and, where necessary, the legislation to ban dangerous substances being consumed, and where there is evidence of breaches of safety, that consumers are made aware immediately of the companies involved.

I have also received notice from Senator Jerry Buttimer of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport to take the appropriate steps to recognise the remembrance day for victims of road traffic accidents.

I have also received notice from Senator Nicky McFadden of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment to outline her plans to re-train and upskill the people of Longford and Westmeath so they can meet the competitive challenges of this economic downturn.

I have also received notice from Senator Fidelma Healy Eames of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to outline the way in which he will support financially Galway city-based families that have suffered as a result of the lead water services network in the city.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Brian Ó Domhnaill, Paschal Donohoe and Cecilia Keaveney and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. The other Senators may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
