I have received 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 Agriculture, Food and the Marine to advise on the efforts being made to introduce a new and improved agri-environment options scheme, AEOS, for farmers who completed REPS 3 in 2011 or will do so in 2012.

I have also received notice from Senator Trevor Ó Clochartaigh of the following matter:

Go gcuirfidh an tAire Ealaíon, Cultúir agus Gaeltachta liosta iomlán de na Ionstraim reachtúla atá fós le foilsiú i nGaeilge ar fáil.

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

The need for the Minister for Health to investigate the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, SSRI, drugs and their use in Ireland.

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

The need for the Minister for Health to outline the Government's response to the issue of narcolepsy and cataplexy, and if he will engage proactively and constructively with the families affected by these conditions.

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

The need for the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government to re-examine the categorisation of unfinished housing estates, particularly Hazel Close and Oak Drive, Carrick-on Suir, County Tipperary.

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

The need for the Minister for Social Protection to assure the Association for Higher Education Access and Disability that its Willing Able Mentoring, WAM, programme for graduates with disabilities which was previously funded through FÁS will continue to receive funding.

I regard the matters raised by the Senators as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment. I have selected the matters raised by Senators Brian Ó Domhnaill, Trevor Ó Clochartaigh, David Norris and Thomas Byrne and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. The other Senators may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
