I wish to advise the House of the following matters in respect of which notice has been given under Standing Order 21 and the name of the Member in each case: (1) Deputy Leo Varadkar — the delay in building projects in three schools in Dublin 15; (2) Deputy Thomas P. Broughan — the need to build a youth and community resource centre in Foxfield, Kilbarrack, Dublin 5; (3) Deputy Joe Costello — to explain why no progress has been made on the provision of the national children's hospital; (4) Deputies Joanna Tuffy and Mary Upton — the withdrawal of respite care from patients in the Cherry Orchard Hospital catchment area; (5) Deputy Jan O'Sullivan — to ensure that commitments to provide extra beds and community teams for child and adolescent psychiatry are fulfilled this year and to urgently address the gap in services for 16 to 18 year olds; (6) Deputy Bernard J. Durkan — the need to provide rent supplement to a person; (7) Deputy Dinny McGinley — the critical situation in Scoil Mhuire, Stranorlar, County Donegal due to lack of space, inadequate facilities, overcrowding and the urgent need to replace the same school as soon as possible; and (8) Deputy Pat Rabbitte — the provision of speech therapy for a child age 16 years (details supplied) who cannot access speech therapy services at St. John of Gods, Islandbridge where she attends and who is not allowed access community speech therapy services because she attends special needs education.

The matters raised by Deputies Joanna Tuffy and Mary Upton, Bernard J. Durkan, Thomas P. Broughan and Leo Varadkar have been selected for discussion.
