I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a specific and important matter of public interest that requires urgent consideration, namely, the need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment to reconsider the changes she is proposing to make in the work permit scheme and to discuss any such proposals with the relevant workers; the need for such workers to be invited to participate directly and through advocacy organisations in a consultation process with the Tánaiste, given that they have made a significant contribution to Irish society and the economy; and the need to ensure that the workers do not have to demonstrate outside the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment at 12 noon today.
