I have 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 Transport, Tourism and Sport to state if he is aware that the airline carrier Flybe is withdrawing from Waterford Airport, to outline the Government’s commitment to the regional airport, and to detail all past and planned State funding to the airport, including funding to extend the runway to accommodate larger aircraft.

I have also received notice from Senator Thomas Byrne of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport to discuss recent developments in relation to the proposed Slane bypass and his proposals to advance the project.

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.
