Jimmy Deenihan

Question:

421 Mr. Deenihan asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage Gaeltacht and the Islands if she will request RTE to improve the reception of RTÉ 1, Network 2 and TG4 in Cahirciveen, County Kerry, especially in the town area; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [22911/00]

The issue raised by the Deputy is the day-to-day responsibility of the RTE authority and I have no statutory function in the matter.

However, in accordance with long-standing custom, I am prepared to furnish to the House information supplied by RTE in response to questions relating specifically to improvements in reception of national broadcasting services.

RTE informs me that good quality reception of RTE 1, Network 2 and Teilifís na Gaeilge is available on the UHF band in the town of Cahirciveen using the correct aerial installation.
