Michael D Higgins (Galway West, Labour)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to discuss the following matter of urgent concern, namely, the deprivation of entertainment and media workers of the right to be represented by a trade union as a result of their being targeted by the Competition Authority, which regards each individual artist as a separate company and the fact that SIPTU has been forced to withdraw from representing these workers in negotiations as a result.
