I propose the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of public concern, namely, the need for this House to discuss how best to commemorate the male and female freedom fighters who took part in the 1916 uprising against the British occupation of our country on the 90th anniversary of that uprising next year and to honour in a suitable manner the male and female IRA volunteers who heroically participated in the War of Independence.

I propose the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to discuss a matter of urgent public and national concern, namely, the funding crisis that has existed at St. John of God's north-east services at St. Mary's in Drumcar, Dunleer, County Louth, for many years, particularly since 2000, which has been exacerbated by serious under-staffing and financial cutbacks which have threatened respite care programmes from 28 February next, the filling of current and future vacancies at St. Mary's and the provision of the entire range of services to the community.

I propose the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to discuss a matter of urgent importance, namely, the report of the review of the Ruddle panel, which examined the death of Róisín Ruddle on 1 July 2003 at Our Lady's Hospital for Sick Children in Crumlin, and the need to introduce, as a matter of urgency, the improvement plan that was outlined for the children's hospital in Crumlin.

Having considered the matters raised, I do not consider them to be in order under Standing Order 31.
