P J Sheehan (Cork South West, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss a matter of urgent importance, namely, the decision by the senior management of the Irish Coast Guard to refuse to allow the Spanish ambassador to visit the Valentia coast guard radio station tomorrow in order to thank the staff of that station for the tremendous rapport they have shown towards his fellow countrymen and if the Minister will allay the fears of Irish Coast Guard staff and state his plans for the location of the coast guard station and their headquarters.
