I have received notice from Senator Tuffy 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 provide information (details supplied) on full-time third level places; and if she will make a statement on the urgent need to find ways to ensure that such third level places are filled in the future.

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

The need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children to provide an update on the improvement in services for people with cystic fibrosis in the past 12 months and, in particular, the need to appoint a cystic fibrosis consultant in Waterford Regional Hospital.

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

The need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children to intervene with the midlands-east Health Service Executive to provide an ambulance base and service from and into Edenderry, County Offaly.

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

The need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children to indicate the timeframe for the permanent appointment to Letterkenny General Hospital of a consultant breast surgeon, the roll-out of breast screening to all parts of the country and the indicative timeframe for the approved 70 extra beds at Letterkenny General Hospital.

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

The need for the Minister for Education and Science to provide an update on her commitment to the refurbishment work at Lanesboro community college, Lanesboro, County Longford.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected those raised by Senators Tuffy, Browne and Moylan and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senators McHugh and Bannon may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
