Question 8: To ask the Minister for Communications; Energy and Natural Resources if his attention has been drawn to the fact that there are effectively sex lines, that is 1500 numbers, being advertised on TV3 in the late evening time and, following the exposure of the trafficking of young women from Europe to Ireland for the sex trade and prostitution, if he will consider banning these phone lines and introducing legislation to govern standards in advertising; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
