I join other Senators who have mentioned the war dead. Many young boys went away expecting to be home after a couple of months and many of them are still lying where they fell. It is a terribly sad day. I have visited the graves of the war dead in France and I am delighted that the Irish Government built the peace tower to recognise our war dead.

I wish to raise two issues. I congratulate the Minister for Finance, Deputy Michael Noonan, on moving so quickly to get the Comptroller and Auditor General to investigate the Siteserv issue with respect to IBRC. There are questions still to be answered and I would welcome an opportunity to have a debate in the House on the issue.

I propose an amendment to the Order of Business - I do not do so lightly - that the Minister for Education and Skills, Deputy Jan O'Sullivan, come to the House to discuss the imminent closure of Gaelcholáiste Chineál Eoghain on the Inishowen Peninsula. This is an Irish-speaking school which is being closed for one reason only, because of an industrial dispute which has been ongoing for a number of years. I understand the students in the school perform exceptionally well. I was involved in a prize-giving ceremony recently and one of the heartbreaking moments was a child from that school who was a recipient of a prize but neither the child nor the parents were informed that he would be the recipient of a national award. This is clearly a serious matter. Ordinarily, I would not propose an amendment such as this, but there seems to be a train of events that will lead to the closure of a school for no reason other than there is an industrial dispute between the management of the school and the staff. Apparently, the staff all pull together and working really well. I do not intend to bring the House into resolving industrial relations issues, but I do not want the one Irish-speaking school in the area to be closed. Principal teachers in the national schools have stopped sending children to the secondary school because of the situation there. That is simply not good enough in this day and age.
