I have notice from Senator Colette Kelleher that, on the motion for the Commencement of the House today, she proposes to raise the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Health to make a statement on the findings of a project led by the HSE and the Alzheimer Society of Ireland to map dementia-specific services across Ireland, and when these findings will be published.
I have also received notice from Senator Victor Boyhan of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Health to report on the closure of 12 hospital beds at the National Rehabilitation Hospital, Dún Laoghaire in January 2017.
I have also received notice form Senator Tim Lombard of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to consider including the traditional trade of cooper in the list of apprenticeships in Ireland.
I have also received notice from Senator Robbie Gallagher of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Justice and Equality to release the Crowley report into the death of Aidan McAnespie 30 years ago, and if he will make a statement on the matter.
I have also received notice from Senator Aodhán Ó Ríordáin of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to consider removing the cap on enrolment in Educate Together schools in Trim, County Meath, New Ross, County Wexford, Tuam, County Galway, Tramore, County Waterford and Castlebar, County Mayo.
I have also received notice from Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Finance to consider the introduction of legislation to provide for a separation between the commercial and retail arms of all regulated financial institutions operating in Ireland to protect retail customers against the effects of future bank failures.
I have also received notice from Senator Fintan Warfield of the following matter:
The need the Minister for Health to address the waiting lists for hormone replacement therapy at St. Colmcille's Hospital, Loughlinstown, County Dublin.
I have also received notice from Senator Keith Swanick of the following matter:
The need for the Minister for Education and Skills to end the restrictions on pupil intake for the 2018-19 school year in the Educate Together national school, Castlebar, County Mayo.
Of the matters raised by the Senators suitable for discussion, I have selected those of Senators Kelleher, Boyhan, Lombard and Gallagher and they will be taken now. I regret I had to rule out of order the matter submitted by Senator Swanick on the ground that it is a repeat of a matter taken on 20 February 2018. The other Senators may give notice on another day of the matters that they wish to raise.
