I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the need to upgrade the science laboratories at Holy Faith secondary school, Clontarf, the need for the rewiring of the entire school premises as the student take-up rate for science is very high, and to give the school the maximum support and assistance.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the need for the Minister for Education and Science and the Government to provide the €50 million in the upcoming budget that is necessary to implement the McIver report that was commissioned under the terms of Sustaining Progress to provide appropriate resourcing, staffing, structuring and development of the post-leaving certificate sector that caters for almost 30,000 students. This report has remained unimplemented for the past two and a half years despite the Department of Education and Science's commitment to implement its recommendations.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the manner in which the planning approval for the proposed gas terminal at Bellanaboy was handled whereby certain interested parties were able to make direct presentations to An Bord Pleanála on the issue while other applicants were not provided with such an opportunity, and the need for the Taoiseach, and the Ministers for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources and the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to outline what communications their Departments had with An Bord Pleanála in that regard.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the serious implications for the Ballina area and the Moy, which depends so much on angling tourism, of the report on inland fisheries and the proposed disengagement of the State from the management and development of inland fisheries with further re-privatisation of our national assets to the detriment of our people.

Having considered the matters raised, they are not in order under Standing Order 31.
