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

To ask the Minister for Transport to set out a policy programme through the National Roads Authority regarding the adequate lining of all secondary and regional routes and the illumination of bus stops on all primary routes in the interests of safety.

I have also received notice from Senator Michael D'Arcy of the following matter:

To ask the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the number of visits from foreign direct investment companies and individuals who are attached to the IDA to County Wexford to date in 2012.

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

The need for The Minister for Education and Skills to outline his plans for fee-paying schools in the education system.

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

The need for the Minister for Health to put in place a comprehensive testing programme for children with spina bifida and hydrocephalus as there is a severe difficulty in accessing vital urology services.

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

The need for the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform to outline if the residence of Seán Mac Diarmada, one of the signatories of the 1916 Proclamation, will receive investment funding for the development of tourist services and facilities and to assist in the continuing conservation of this historical site, as the centenary commemoration of 1916 approaches.

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

Go dtabharfaidh an tAire Coimirce Sóisialaí briseadh síos maidir le líon na ndaoine ón scéim JobBridge a cuireadh isteach le Roinn, eagras, áisíneacht, nó comhlacht Stáit agus cé mhéid díobh a coinníodh i bpost leis an dream sin ina dhiaidh na scéime.

I regard the matters raised as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and I have selected Senators Michael D?Arcy, Burke, Comiskey and Ó Clochartaigh and they will be taken at the conclusion of business. Senators Higgins and Clune may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
