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

The need for the Minister for Health to outline his intentions in regard to seeking planning permission for a co-located maternity hospital at the same time as planning permission is sought for the new children's hospital.

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

The need for the Minister for Health to clarify the position in respect of Dublin hospitals which are unilaterally imposing very narrow catchment areas in respect of patients for whom they will provide medical treatment.

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

The need for the Minister for Finance to advise what steps have been taken to ensure that assets sold by the National Asset Management Agency to private equity companies achieve the best possible price and return for the Irish taxpayer.

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.
