asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs when a telephone service will be provided for a person (details supplied) in Dublin 12 as she has been waiting for service for six years and is in poor health.

I understand fully the frustration felt at the delay in providing telephones. Regrettably, however, it will not be possible to meet this application until necessary additional engineering work is carried out.

The objective of the Department's current telephone development programme is to provide a fully satisfactory telephone service nationally in terms of both quality and availability by the end of 1984 and it is expected that service will be provided for the person named during the first half of next year.

asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs when a public telephone kiosk will be provided in the Cushlawn area of Tallaght, County Dublin.

It is planned to provide a telephone kiosk to serve Cushlawn estate. Provision of the kiosk is dependent on the completion of cabling work currently in progress in the area. The kiosk will be erected and brought into service as soon as possible after the completion of the cabling work.
