asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs if he will now provide an all night telephone service for subscribers in Toomevara, County Tipperary.

The introduction of all night service at Toomevara exchange is not warranted at present. A number of subscribers have continuous service by means of switching to a continuous service exchange when Toomevara is closed and it will be possible to accommodate several more similarly in a few weeks time when additional trunk circuits are provided between Toomevara and Nenagh.
