CHIEF MINISTER FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO. 376

Television Reception - Wanniassa Area

MS FOLLETT - Asked the Chief Minister upon notice on 13 March 1991

(1) Is he aware of the problems with television reception in the Wanniassa area.

(2) Has he raised these problems with the Commonwealth Government.

MR KAINE - The answer to the Members question is as follows

(1) Advice from the Federal Department of Transport and Communications indicates that, following the installation of a relay station on Tuggeranong Hill eighteen months ago, any problems previously experienced with television reception in the Wanniassa area have been rectified.

The Department of Transport and Communications did indicate, however, that there are continuing problems with reception in the suburbs of Isaacs and Weston. The Department intends to erect a relay station on Mount Taylor to improve reception in these areas. It is anticipated that the relay station will be in service by June 1992.

(2) In light of the above information, I do not propose to raise

this matter with the Commonwealth Minister at this time.
