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

The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to improve the broadband at Scoil na Trionóide, Lismullen, County Meath, where e-mails cannot be opened, despite the fact that broadband sponsored by the Department of Education and Skills is supposed to be available.

The need for the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine to investigate the setting up of an audit committee to audit all publicly owned grasslands in order to assess potential fodder supply so as to alleviate any prospective fodder crisis.

The need for the Minister for Justice and Equality to outline the extra cost to the Garda of policing Arthur's day and to advise if he will ask Diageo to cover these costs, in line with the precedent already in place whereby concert promoters and sporting bodies have to contribute to the cost of gardaí on non-public duties during their major events.

I have also received notice from Senator Colm Burke of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources to outline the action he proposes to take to provide access to landline, broadband and mobile reception for the area known as Fox's Bridge and Courtbrack (near Blarney) which is less than 15 miles from Cork city, in view of the fact that such facilities exist for over 100 houses.
