‹ Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Direct Satellite Broadcasting. Legalising reception of satellite signals
Summary
Treacy asked whether the Government would legalise deflecting television signals and prepare to benefit from satellite broadcasting. The Chair ruled it a separate question and instructed the Minister not to answer.
In view of the fact that we are moving into the satellite age and that at present the cabling of signals has become too costly, will the Minister tell the House if the Government will legalise the deflecting of television and broadcasting signals in the near future. Have the Government any proposals to ensure that we can take the maximum advantage from satellite broadcasting when it becomes available?
