Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Use of Transistor and Portable Wireless Sets in Public Places.
38.
The use of portable wireless sets is only one of a number of possible nuisances of the kind the Deputy has in mind which may be caused in public places. Others are the use of portable gramophones and record players in respect of which I have no function. The control and prevention of such nuisances is not a matter for me but for the authorities who are responsible for such places.
