I have received notice from the following Senators that they propose to raise the following matters:
Senator Mary Seery Kearney - The need for the Minister of State with responsibility for the Office of Public Works to provide an update on the commitment given by the OPW to repair and protect the cromlech at the Chapelizod pedestrian entrance to the Phoenix Park.
Senator Malcolm Byrne - The need for the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science to provide an update on implementation of the recommendations of the Funding the Future framework published in May 2022, particularly those relating to the core funding shortfall.
Senator Barry Ward - The need for the Minister for Education to make a statement on the continuation and survival of Newpark Academy of Music, Blackrock, County Dublin.
The matters raised by the Senators are suitable for discussion and they will be taken now.
