Before coming to the Order of Business I propose to deal with a notice under Standing Order 32. I have received notice from Deputy Michael D. Higgins and call on him to state the matter.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to debate the following urgent matter: given the announcement of a closure decision at Abbot Ireland in Galway city, the urgent need for such new legislation as is necessary, and the monitoring and implementation of the existing legislation passed by Dáil Éireann to give the full force of law in the State to the EU employment directive on information and consultation framework through, among other means, establishing and resourcing a proper inspectorate.

Having given the matter full consideration, I do not consider it to be in order under Standing Order 32.
