Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 32. I will call on Deputies in the order in which they submitted their notices to my office.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the urgent need for more investment and job creation on the north side of Dublin and to call on the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment and IDA Ireland to make this a priority issue and to give the maximum support and assistance to all small businesses in the Dublin North-Central constituency.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the cutbacks in the CSP project which means that Kerry respite care will lose €42,481 in grant funding, endangering the continued position of over 30 employees and the care provided for between 80 to 90 clients each week in their own homes and communities, and the huge blow that any cuts in jobs and provision will mean for the people concerned who are among the most vulnerable in society and who will be forced back into greater poverty and isolation as a consequence.

Having considered the matters raised, I do not consider them to be in order under Standing Order 32.
