Ceist:341 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children if he has received a copy of a survey carried out by the ESRI on behalf of the Centre for Insurance Studies, UCD, which showed that there are greater problems among children today than in previous generations in relation to hearing problems, which indicates that young people's hearing is being affected by noise levels; and if he will, as a result, have his Department investigate noise levels in discos and other public areas of entertainment.
