Dan Neville (Limerick West, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to debate the following urgent matter: the death by suicide of a woman at Tallaght hospital last Saturday; and the refusal of the Government to respond positively to the request made on the Adjournment Debate of 31 October 2007 for the appointment of a suicide nurse for whom funding has been made available by the National Suicide Prevention Office but who is not being recruited due to the HSE embargo on staff appointments. The appointment should be made because this is a critical frontline service.
