Letterkenny automatic exchange opening
Blaney seeks the opening date for Letterkenny’s automatic exchange and challenges whether it is on schedule. The Minister expects it to enter service by year-end, based on the latest projection, while Blaney disputes that timeline; the exchange’s service scope is ruled outside the question.
asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs to state the precise date on which the automatic exchange in Letterkenny will come into operation.

How much overdue is the actual commencement of this service? What will be the extent of the service when and if it comes into operation?

(Dublin South-Central): The projection was that it would be opened at the end of 1979. This projection was given earlier in the year. We expect to meet that deadline.

Is the Minister really suggesting it is on schedule? I am not making an issue out of that. It is so far off it that perhaps there is no record of it.
