I have notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill 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 give approval to the building project in Scoil Chonaill Naofa, Bun Beag, County Donegal, to proceed.

I have also received notice from Senator Michael McCarthy 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 outline the position in relation to the proposed new extension to Kinsale community college, the reason for the delay in this project, and if he will give a commitment that the project will proceed in the near future.

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

The need for the Minister for Health and Children to outline the progress made to date on the establishment of a satellite radiotherapy centre for the north west.

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

The need for the Minister for Health and Children to facilitate the annual holiday for the Friedreich's Ataxia Society of Ireland.

I have also received notice from Senator Cecilia Keaveney that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, she proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport to report on his interactions with his Northern counterparts to address the international port status of Magilligan, which has placed an economic noose on the Foyle ferry that is currently out for re-tender and is in need of a change of security status for this cross-Border project to thrive.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Ó Domhnaill, McCarthy and Doherty and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senators Ross and Keaveney may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
