I have received notice from Senator Norris that on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education and Science to ensure that Irish students who wish to study medicine are not disadvantaged with regard to the standard of qualifications required of them for entrance to medical school, compared with the lower standards which are applied to applicants from other countries.

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

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to clarify his position with regard to the nitrates action plan in light of its potentially devastating impact on the pig and poultry industries.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and they will be taken at the conclusion of business.
