Business of Seanad

 

10:30 am

Rory Kiely (Fianna Fail)

I have received notice from Senator O'Rourke that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, she proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education and Science to outline the progress made and the future plans for the extension to Wilson's hospital school, Multyfarnham, County Westmeath.

I have also received notice from Senator Morrissey of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education and Science to indicate the level of resources that are targeted at the area of special needs including autism, ADHD and Asperger's syndrome in the Dublin north county area and if the needs of the children are being resourced properly.

I have also received notice from Senator Ryan of the following matter:

An géarghá atá ann go gcintíonn an tAire Oideachais agus Eolaíochta go gcuirfear tús le togáil Ghaelscoil Cloch na Coillte, Contae Chorcaí, chomh luath agus is féidir, ós rud é go bhfuil an Ghaelscoil ar siúl ó 1994 ar aghaidh agus go bhfuil 240 dalta ann atá lonnaithe i seomraí réamh-dhéanta a bhfuiltear ag íoc €330,000 cíos orthu.

I have also received notice from Senator Dooley of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to review planning guidelines to incorporate traffic control measures in all new housing developments, and furthermore to establish a funding stream to local authorities to allow for the construction of traffic calming measures in established housing developments and built up areas.

I have also received notice from Senator Browne of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to clarify if he is aware of the huge historical importance of Brownshill dolmen, Hacketstown Road, County Carlow and if he has any plans to improve the facilities for visitors at the site.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and I have selected those by Senators O'Rourke, Morrissey and Ryan and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senators Dooley and Browne may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
