Vol. 266 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Educational Television.

38.

asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs if it is proposed to use television in relation to adult education to help explain academic and theoretical ideas to the ordinary person.

The question of the use of television for adult education purposes is primarily a matter for Radio Telefís Éireann, possibly in consultation with the Department of Education. The approval of the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs would of course be needed for any increase in transmission hours that might be involved. I feel sure that the authority will bear the Deputy's suggestion in mind.
