I have also received notice from Senator Timmy Dooley of the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Education to provide an update on the status of negotiations for the purchase of a field beside St. Patrick’s National School, Diswellstown, Dublin 15.

Of the matters raised by the Senators suitable for discussion, I have selected Senators Byrne, Boyhan, O’Loughlin, Ahearn, Gallagher and Black and they will be taken now. I regret that I had to rule out of order the matter raised by Senator Dooley on the grounds that the Minister has no official responsibility in that area. The other Senators may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.
