Question 296: To ask the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources the number of mobile telecommunications masts which were monitored by ComReg during 2006; if they have monitored the structure next to a school (details supplied) in County Limerick; and if not, their plans to do so in view of the written requests from community representatives.

The Commission for Communication Regulation — ComReg — audits emissions of non-ionising radiation from telecommunication sites including masts. So far in 2006, 17 sites have been monitored, with a further 20 sites to be monitored over the next month. To date, ComReg has not received any written requests to monitor any mast or site in Glin, County Limerick, or its environs. I will ask officials to liaise with ComReg to arrange an audit of the site in question.
