Micheál Martin: The Minister has added further incentives. I will ask the Minister for Education to come back on this issue to the Deputy but my understanding is that the Minister has recently brought forward proposals for this summer, again with more incentives to try to encourage the provision of summer schools and participation in summer schools.

Pa Daly: Ba mhaith liom ceist a chur ort maidir le Teach Siamsa na Carraige in iarthar Chiarraí. Tá a fhios againn go bhfuil deacrachtaí airgeadais i Siamsa Tíre agus bhí bord Shiamsa Tíre chun é a dhíol. Teastaíonn ón bpobal i gCorca Dhuibhne é a choimeád i seilbh an phobail agus gan é dhíol. Is achmhainn thábhachtach...

Micheál Martin: Go raibh maith ag an Teachta as ucht an cheist thábhachtach seo a ardú. Beidh mé ag caint le hAire na Gaeltachta, Thomas Byrne, go háirithe i gcomhthéacs na ceiste seo. Admhaím gur áis thábhachtach é seo do mhuintír Chorca Dhuibhne. Níl cúlra an scéil agam ina iomláine ach déanfaidh mé an cheist a fhiosrú....

Mick Barry: The Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking Bill) 2023 focuses on trafficking for sexual exploitation. There is still a need for dedicated legislation to cover trafficking for labour exploitation. I will give a recent example. I have seen correspondence between the International Transport Workers' Federation and the Garda relating to a case where fishers from Ghana were issued...

Micheál Martin: A situation containing any exploitation of workers, especially international workers who are lured into particular jurisdictions and then are not given any rights and exploited in terms of their labour, is absolutely unacceptable. I will refer this to the Minister for Justice in terms of the legislation and the timeline for that. We will perhaps get the background to the wider story in...

Denis Naughten: Ireland has the highest incidence of rare disease in Europe. It is one in every 17 people, including all children with cancer. One of the critical tools in securing a diagnosis, and, as a result, a possible treatment, is genetic testing. However, when the Crumlin hospital relocates to the national children's hospital the genetics and genomics laboratory will be left behind. We have now...

Micheál Martin: Children's Health Ireland has produced a strategy and there is a national strategy for accelerating genetics and genomics medicine to build a strong national genetics service. It was launched in December 2022. It is important. It is key to improving the evidence base and infrastructural support in genetic testing. The HSE is currently examining national testing capacity and developing a...

Mattie McGrath: On Saturday, 600 people marched in Clonmel begging for improved services for people with disabilities. We heard testimonies of patients whose children have no school places for September and almost have to travel to Mayo from Tipperary to get a psychological appointment. We heard stories of efforts to recruit staff to the children's disability network teams, CDNTs, which have been...

Micheál Martin: The Deputy did raise that issue. I will talk to the HSE, the National Council for Special Education, NCSE, and the Department of Education and I will ask the Minister for Education, and the Minister for Health in respect of the CDNTs, to come back to the Deputy on this. As I said earlier, we need multidisciplinary teams in schools. The progressing disability services programme has not...
