asked the Minister for Posts and Telegraphs the reason a telephone service has not yet been provided for a person (details supplied) in Templeogue, Dublin as the application was made approximately four years ago; and when a telephone service will be supplied.

It has not been possible so far to provide service for the person named because of the large volume of engineering work on hands and awaiting attention in the Dublin area. Service will be provided as soon as possible but it is unlikely that the necessary cabling can be completed for about a year.
