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 the Environment, Community and Local Government to outline when the long overdue Leader programme will be formally available to applicants in Gaeltacht areas and to outline the number and level of outstanding Leader payments to all groups who have been approved funding under Meitheal Forbartha na Gaeltacht Teo, MFG, when administrating the scheme.

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

Go ndéanfaidh an tAire Oideachais agus Scileanna ráiteas maidir leis na hacmhainní teagaisc a bheidh ar fáil do Scoil Náisiúnta Inis Meáin, i gCuan na Gaillimhe don scoil bhliain seo chugainn 2012-13, an cinneadh atá glactha múinteoir a bhaint den scoil, an plé a rinneadh leis an scoil faoi seo agus an mbeidh sé sásta achomharc a ghlacadh ón scoil bunaithe ar na cúinsí eisceachtúla tíreolaíoch, sóisialta, oileánda agus teanga a bhaineann le hoideachas a chuir ar fáil ar an oileán sin.

I have also received notice fromSenator Deirdre Clune of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to ensure that the building of the new Educate Together school in Carrigaline, County Cork, is commenced at the earliest possible date.

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

The need for the Minister for Finance to give an update on plans for a playground at Oldbridge House, County Meath.

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.
