Vol. 389 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Gaeltacht Television.

5.

asked the Taoiseach when Gaeltacht television will be on the air; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Tá tuarascáil faoin ábhar sin á hullmhú faoi láthair ag Údarás na Gaeltachta. Tuigim go mbeidh sí ar fáil i gceann míosa nó mar sin agus déanfar an scéal uile a mheas tuilleadh ansin.

Has the estimated cost of £10 million for such a service been provided for in the Estimates and, if not, does the Minister of State envisage a Supplementary Estimate? Further, does he envisage that Gaeltacht television will depend on the MMDS system as the sole means of distribution in view of some doubt as to its ability to penetrate to some of the Gaeltacht regions?

Séard atá ar siúl faoi láthair ná go bhfuil mionscrúdú á dhéanamh ar an ábhar seo ar fad ag Údarás na Gaeltachta, agus beidh rudaí cosúil le costais á gcur san áireamh nuair a bheidh an cheist pléite san iomlán.

Ar aghaidh go ceist a 6.

A very specific question: if something is to go ahead in the calendar year of 1989 is there any financial provision to do so?

The Deputy has already asked that question.

It was not answered.

Níl ceist chostais réitithe go fóill. Níl a fhios agam go díreach cén costas a bheas ann. Sin rud a chaithfidh an tÚdarás a phlé agus a chur os comhair an Rialtais agus Roinn na Gaeltachta nuair a bheas an cheist réitithe.
