Anois, iarratais chun tairiscint a dhéanamh an Dáil a chur ar athló faoi Bhuan-Ordú 32. Before dealing with the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a request to move the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss a matter of national and local importance, namely, the urgent need for a debate on all aspects of agriculture in light of the fact that Grove Turkeys in Monaghan has paid off 130 workers, creating major problems for 85 turkey farms; 60,000 farmers are not receiving REPS on which they depend to meet repayments and living expenses; the pig and poultry industry is in chaos; and the Government's failure to introduce legislation in respect of the labelling of most meat products. I hope the Ceann Comhairle can agree to my request to debate this urgent matter.
