I have received notice from Senator John Whelan that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:

To ask the Minister for Health if he will immediately publish the details and announce his long awaited decision into the HSE review of community nursing home hospitals and services in County Laois, with particular reference to Abbeyleix and Shaen hospitals.

I have also received notice from Senator Lorraine Higgins of the following matter:

To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine to take steps to ensure that all rules, regulations and laws both Irish and European are upheld by Department officials conducting farm inspections over the coming months, and to furnish all Irish farmers with a charter of their rights in this regard.

I have also received notice from Senator Kathryn Reilly of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport to discuss the future of rural transport bus services, such as the Cavan area rural transport scheme.

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. I now call the Leader.
