asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs whether he will have repeat broadcasts of the All-Ireland Hurling and Football Finals made on the wireless on some occasions subsequent to the playing of those games.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Repeat Broadcasts of All-Ireland Finals.
The suggestion made in the question that commentaries given on matches should be repeated subsequently is, I feel, a matter of programme detail which it would be appropriate to leave to the discretion of Radio Éireann. I am passing on the suggestion to the station.
The Deputy will appreciate that the programme is at present limited in duration and it is difficult to give additional time to any particular feature.
We would all like to hear a repeat of the broadcast from New York on the All-Ireland Final.
That is another question.
