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 Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation to indicate if he has any concerns about the EU's free trade agreement with Colombia and Peru; if he is aware of the significant human rights concerns associated with the agreement; if he will outline his plans to deal with these concerns; and if he will make a statement on this matter.
I have also received notice from Senator Mark Daly of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources to provide an update on the implementation of the Government’s national broadband plan, particularly in Kerry which has been affected by the expiration of the previous national broadband scheme.
I have also received notice from Senator Thomas Byrne of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to explain the position regarding a new site and permanent building for St. Peter's national school, Dunboyne, County Meath.
I regard the matters raised by Senators Cullinane, Daly and Byrne as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and they will be taken at the conclusion of business.
