Order of Business.

John Gerard Hanafin (Fianna Fail)
I ask the Leader for a debate in the new session on stem cells, particularly the situation where somatic stem cells in adult tissue are not investigated by the international community despite having the most promise. This offers an opportunity for Ireland to lead the way. The benefits in the next few years will derive from adult stem cells and germ line therapy. I urge that this country lead the way in this regard.
