Vol. 224 No. 8

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Radio Telefís Éireann Broadcasts.

29.

asked the Minister for Local Government whether he made suggestions to the authorities at Radio or Telefís Éireann following which news items were changed or deleted; and, if so, the number of occasions and the reasons for his actions on all such occasions.

30.

asked the Minister for Local Government whether he suggested to Radio or Telefís Éireann that certain individuals be not allowed to broadcast; if so, the number of occasions and the reasons for his actions on all such occasions.

With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to answer Questions Nos. 29 and 30 together.

I would refer the Deputy to the reply already given by the Taoiseach to similar questions today.

Did we not all get the same reply?

We are not confused.

Would the Minister refer us precisely—to which reply of the Taoiseach?

The last one.

Was that the reply in which the Taoiseach said, as I understood him, that the specific questions on the Order Paper today would be answered?

No, he did not say that specific questions were down. He said there was a question down on a specific case which would be answered and this is not it.

Perhaps I misunderstood him.

I think so.
