Senators Ó Murchú and Glynn raised the issue of No.16 Moore Street and the need to protect that building as a national monument. This is, first and foremost, a matter for Dublin City Council but the concerns of Senators will be made known to the relevant Department.

Senator Mullen withdrew his request for a debate on stem cell research on the basis that he intends to introduce a Private Member's Bill on the issue, which in itself will give rise to a debate. We look forward to the Bill to be devised by the Senator.
