Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 March 2007
682 Mr. Kehoe asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs the services and facilities available to persons with a hearing disability who wish to phone his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10948/07]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department provides facilities e.g. a hearing loop, to facilitate visitors to the Department who have a hearing disability and is also in a position to provide handsets with enhanced hearing for visitors or staff with hearing disabilities.
The Department, however, does not provide facilities for those who wish to phone the Department. If this has created any specific difficulty, the Department would be happy to try to rectify that and I would welcome any information that the Deputy might be able to provide in this regard.
