Vol. 279 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Vision Damage Information.

4.

asked the Minister for Health if he has any classified information to indicate that eyes or vision may be damaged by watching television in darkened rooms; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am not aware of any classified information which would indicate that watching television in darkened rooms is harmful to eyes or vision.

Has the Minister seen reports in the newspapers recently to this effect? Would he make inquiries into the matter? If there is such a danger will he make the public aware of it?

Inquiries have been made and the position is as I stated in my reply.
