Before coming to the Order of Business, I propose to deal with a notice under Standing Order 32. I call Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh.

Ba mhaith liom cead a iarradh an Dáil a chur ar athló chun déileáil leis an gnó rí-thábhachtach seo faoi riar Ordú 32, namely, the urgent need for the Government to respond to the publication today of the 1st monitoring report into the adequacy of housing in Dolphin House by intervening to secure the prompt and progressive realisation of the residents' rights. This report is a damning indictment of State failure. Specifically, the Government needs to make a statement today detailing precisely what will be done immediately to address the sewage, damp and mould which have a terrible impact on the health of residents and a proven link with lung disease and needs to update this House on the long-promised and much needed regeneration of the estate.

Having considered the matter raised, I do not consider it to be order under Standing Order 32.
