asked the Minister for Industry, Commerce and Tourism if he will state in respect of all public buildings used by each State body for which he is statutorily responsible if easy access to such buildings by means of ramps, lifts or otherwise does not exist for persons using wheelchairs; if so, if he will indicate the name and location of each such building; the services provided therein; and the plans, if any, to improve the accessibility of the buildings to persons using wheelchairs.

The information sought by the Deputy is not readily available in my Department. If the Deputy would put down a question for next week, the information, which is now being compiled, will, hopefully, be available.

On a point of order, will I be allowed to put down the same question next week?

In view of the Minister's reply, I should think so.
