asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs when the telephone kiosk in the Athenry Road-Tubberjarlath area of Tuam, County Galway will be provided; and if he will consider the request for the provision of another telephone kiosk at Tullinadaly Road, Tuam, made by Tuam Town Commissioners.

A kiosk for the Athenry Road-Tubberjarlath area has been included in this year's programme. A kiosk is not warranted at Tullinadaly Road.
Could the Minister tell me when the decision was made to supply a telephone kiosk at Athenry Road?
I am afraid I have not got the exact date. It is part of a programme arranged over a period for subsequent years.
I should like to point out that I got a letter from the Minister last week—or from his office, at least—stating that a telephone kiosk was being erected and I want to point out that this is just an opportune question by the Deputy.
I got the same request from the Tuam Town Commissioners as Deputy Donnellan got but he was too slow to put it down.
