I wish to raise a matter which I have not had an opportunity to raise for a long time although I am not sure if this is the appropriate legislation under which to do so. I brought to the attention of the communications authorities, regulatory and otherwise, and this is a criticism of the regulatory system, a flaw in the burglar alarm installation system throughout the country. The Leas-Cheann Comhairle may be concerned that this matter has no relation to this legislation, which it has not but it comes under its heading. I sought at the time to make the public aware of the fact that certain intruder alarm installations throughout the country were unsoundly based, that they could not do the job they were intended to do and that all the information on them of which the public should have been made aware was not being made available to them.
