Senator Malcolm Byrne - The need for the Minister for Health to provide an update on the promised primary care centre at Gorey, County Wexford, and to indicate when expressions of interest will be advertised.

Senator Tim Lombard - The need for the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage to provide an update on the work being carried out by his Department in conjunction with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine to secure the renewal of Ireland's nitrates derogation from 1 January 2026.
