I have received notice from Senator David Cullinane 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 Skills to make a statement on his plans to develop a technological university in the south east, the process involved in this development and the timescales envisioned for the development of any such university.

I have also received notice from Senator Fidelma Healy Eames of the following matter:

To ask the Minister for Education and Skills to investigate the serious case of an 11 year old boy (details supplied) with autism and ADHD whose right to an appropriate education has been denied him and who has been locked in an isolation room in his primary school for four days because he is unable to do his school work.

I have also received notice from Senator Jimmy Harte of the following matter:

To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government to give a report on the dumping at sea of chemical weapons off the Donegal coast in the 1950s which the UK Ministry of Defence admitted to in the 1990s; and the steps, if any, the Government has taken to protect against possible seepage of toxic and dangerous materials at the dump site.

I have also received notice from Senator Averil Power of the following matter:

To ask the Minister for Children and Youth affairs to reverse the devastating funding cuts to youth projects in Dublin Bay north.

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.
