Paul McGrath

Question:

161 Mr. McGrath asked the Minister for Communications if a licence was granted to provide a piped television relay service in Athlone, County Westmeath; the extent of the urban area which is licensed; when the licence was granted; when it is due for renewal; if he has received any complaints about the service; if he is satisfied that the service is adequate; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The cable television licence for Athlone was awarded on 1 May 1981. The licence covers Athlone Urban District and its environs.

The licence remains in force unless surrendered or revoked. My Department have received some complaints recently about the service and these are being investigated.
