asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs if he will provide a separate section in the telephone directory listing fire brigade and ambulance services; and, if not, why.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Listing of Emergency Services.
9.
The preface of the directory contains instructions on how to reach the Fire Brigade, Garda and Ambulance Services and subscribers are advised to record the telephone numbers of these services in the space specially provided for this purpose on the first page of the directory. In addition the emergency services are listed under their respective headings in Parts One and Two of the directory.
I do not consider that listing these services under a separate section in the directory would result in any improvement on the existing arrangements.
