I seek the Adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, whether the Government will seek publication of a report by the National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland into issues relating to child protection procedures in the diocese of Cloyne, if the Government will confirm if this report was commissioned by the Department of Health and Children, if the recommendations of that report have been implemented, and if certain persons have been removed from positions of responsibility in relation to child protection.

I seek the Adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of extreme national importance, namely, the huge risk posed to public health by the announcement that the HSE must save up to €900 million in 2009, with acute services in the midlands and the south east facing review next year and many developments uncertain.

I seek the Adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss a matter of extreme importance, namely, health and safety issues regarding farmers who are desperately trying to complete slatted house units in order to comply with the deadline of 31 December under the farm waste management scheme. Two people have already been seriously injured while erecting slatted houses on farms in County Clare in the past two weeks. The deadline is unreasonable and the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food must put forward a case at this late stage to extend the deadline due to the continuing inclement weather conditions before lives are lost.
