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

The need for the Minister for Health and Children to allow a community welfare officer to be assigned to the Leopardstown-Ballyogan health centre as a matter or urgency, given the significant increase in population and subsequent increase in demand.

I have also received notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to ensure island residents will be allowed to cast their votes on the same day as other citizens of the State in all future elections.

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

The need for the Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills to make a statement on the construction of a new primary school in Ballygarvan, County Cork.

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

The need for the Minister for Health and Children to outline the current status of youth councils and the plans, if any, she has for their development.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Corrigan, Ó Domhnaill and Buttimer and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senator Keaveney may give notice on another day of the matter she wishes to raise.
