Cecilia Keaveney (Fianna Fail)

I thank the Minister for his detailed reply. I had much of the information. Perhaps he will tackle the specific issue of whether the digitalisation of the Divis transmitter is all that is necessary to provide a digital overspill into the north west. I believe it might be necessary to upgrade the Limavady transmitter to facilitate that. I urge the Minister to get that information as early as possible to the households we are discussing.

Currently, a television in one part of my house does not have certain channels while in the other part of the house it does. I do not know if that is a temporary matter due to work that is taking place. If something appeared on the television screens to notify people that analogue has been turned off and that this is the shape of things to come, it would be helpful. People know there are two services working together but they do not know what is causing the problems they are experiencing. The lack of information means they are wondering what they should do. While people advise them to seek new solutions in the two year period, they do not know what solution they should seek. I accept it is a technical matter. I am far from being a technological person in terms of explaining the problem but I hope the Minister and his officials will be able to understand what I am trying to explain and will raise it with people who can respond to it effectively.
