Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 32. I will call Deputies in the order in which they submitted 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 to support the poorest and most disadvantaged communities and groups in Ireland; to call on the Government to support Voices that Matter, a grouping of national organisations that represent, empower and respond to the needs of groups experiencing poverty, exclusion and inequality; and finally to call on the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs to ensure any future funding programme prioritises a focus on combating poverty and inequality.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government and the Government to take seriously the issue of pyrite, which is present in up to 20,000 houses in the State, and to provide the necessary funding immediately to help those householders whose homes are starting to collapse around them.

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss a matter of national importance, namely, the continued embargo on recruitment in the HSE which is putting peoples lives at risk and which is especially impacting on the care of our elderly, particularly in the Plunkett Home in Boyle, County Roscommon, where the Government still has not lived up its commitment to employ a clinical nurse manager.

Having considered the matters raised, they are not in order under Standing Order 32.
