I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national public interest, namely, that in the light of the most recent list of tax defaulters published by the Revenue Commissioners, the Minister for Finance make a statement to the House on the plans, if any, he has to strengthen legislation on the way in which Members and former Members of this House comply with their tax liabilities.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of urgent national importance, namely, in view of the recent inhumane deportations, the need for the Government to reverse these decisions and to declare an amnesty for all asylum seekers already resident in the State, and to ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform to make a statement on the matter.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the spending of €150 million to further congest Dublin Airport and its surroundings when Ireland's fourth international airport at Knock lies under-developed and under-utilised with 400,000 passengers compared to 38 million passengers projected for Dublin Airport by 2025, which flies in the face of common sense and balanced regional development.

If Knock had the second terminal or the money for it, that would do fine. Some €40 million would be fine.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of local and national importance, namely, the motion passed by Sligo County Council which expresses its grave concern about action of the Arts Council in adopting a report that was substantially changed after it was signed off by the special committee on the traditional arts and which also calls on the Minister to initiate an immediate and full inquiry to ascertain the facts surrounding this totally unacceptable and unaccountable action by the Arts Council.

If the Ceann Comhairle will not concede to the Deputy's request he will concede to nothing.

If the Deputy speaks out of breath more often, she will end up in an accident and emergency department. She should take it easy.

Having considered the matters, they are not in accordance with Standing Order 31.
