James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the fact that one in six people was at risk of poverty last year according to the annual survey of income and living conditions; and the rise, as reported by the Central Statistics Office, in the proportion of older people and working poor in this category.
