An Ceann Comhairle: Before coming to the Order of Business I propose to deal with a number of notices under Standing Order 32. I will call on the Deputies in the order in which they submitted their notices to my office.
Deputy Finian McGrath: I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance and concern, namely, the need for the Government to make addressing the jobs crisis a priority by supporting the plans to create 120,000 new jobs as a result of the recommendations of the innovation taskforce, and to support the introduction of bonus CAO points for mathematics and science in the leaving certificate while at the same time developing education and skills for the vast majority of people. I call for an end to all of the talk about jobs and for us to focus on supporting people with new ideas and sensible plans for job creation as a matter of urgency. |
