Requests to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31.
I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter, namely, the need for the Minister for Foreign Affairs to act immediately to ensure the safe release fr...

Statement for Information of Voters: Motion.
Health (Amendment) Bill 2004: Second Stage.
