Brendan Howlin (Wexford, Labour)

In accordance with the terms of Standing Order 31, I wish to move the adjournment of the Dáil to discuss the following specific and important matter of public interest requiring urgent attention: the need for the Minister for Health and Children to outline the steps she intends to take to inquire into the circumstances surrounding the deaths of four members of the Dunne family, which has caused shock to their relatives and the general community in Monagear, County Wexford; and the further need to conduct a review into the adequacy of services offered by the HSE to families of individuals under stress, particularly at weekends. In view of the unique circumstances of this awful tragedy, I hope the Ceann Comhairle will agree to this proposal.
