Cecilia Keaveney (Fianna Fail)

I will move on to the question if the Cathaoirleach will allow me. Will the Leader to raise with the Minister for Education and Science and the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism the current situation in respect of the academy of music which was to have been established in Ireland so that people such as Sophie Cashell would not have to leave at the age of 13 to pursue their professional musician qualifications in London?

As a result of an Oireachtas committee report on music and young people, we received €100,000 in funding two years in a row for a music project in Donegal. Will the Leader ask the Minister for Education and Science whether this pilot project can be rolled out throughout the country because it has been recognised as very useful in Donegal and in two other projects?

Will the Leader ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs to come to the House to discuss the current status of the peace process, given recent deaths, attacks on the PSNI and hoax bombs, and to give Members the chance to say that we do not want to see any return to where we were? I request the indulgence of the Chair to pass my sympathies on to the family involved, Monsignor Donnelly and the people of Omagh on the most awful tragedy that happened today, namely, the death of that family in a fire today.
