I too join previous speakers in calling for a weekly debate on Iraq. There is no doubt that the different views held here and in the community have to be reflected and respected, and a debate would at least help to correct the selective inaccuracies being peddled by some. This is important for us and for the public.

There are two points that I would like the Leader to raise on my behalf. On several occasions I have raised the issue of the contract for the Cork School of Music, but despite having tabled it on the Adjournment and raising it in many different forms I have yet to receive an answer. The people of Cork are also awaiting an answer.
