Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands (Miss de Valera)

I understand that the Deputy is referring to automated voice mail. My Department does not have this facility at present.

The use of such facilities by bodies under the aegis of my Department is a matter for the bodies concerned.
