Houses of the Oireachtas Channel ((アイルランド語:Bealach Thithe an Oireachtais)) or publicly called Oireachtas TV is a public service broadcaster for the two houses of the Oireachtas (Irish parliament). The channel was created under the Broadcasting Act 2009 for broadcast on the proposed roll out of Irish Digital Terrestrial Television. The channel broadcasts in the Irish and English languages. ==History== Oireachtas TV has been available online for a number of years and both state public service broadcasters RTÉ and TG4 have carried coverage of each of the Houses of the Oireachtas. RTÉ provides a late night round up of with Oireachtas Report and at noon Leaders Questions. TG4 broadcast live Dáil proceedings with their service Dáil Beo and have also provide extensive live coverage of Committee meetings. In November 2007 the then Taoiseach Bertie Ahern announced in the Dáil that he favoured an Oireachtas channel stating that "compared with a lot of tripe that is on TV, the Oireachtas channel would be far better and very interesting."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ahern favours Oireachtas TV channel )〕 Since the statement the government have moved to make Oireachtas TV a reality on the digital terrestrial platform (Saorview) in Ireland, and have included it in the Broadcasting Act 2009. Chapter 6 of the Broadcasting Act 2009 clearly sets out the role of the Houses of the Oireachtais Channel.〔http://www.oireachtas.ie/documents/bills28/acts/2009/a1809.pdf〕 However the Oireachtas Commission have yet to decided when the launch will occur. On 15 November 2011, Oireachtas TV began broadcasting on UPC Ireland channel 801, initially as part of a trial initiative for a period of six months.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dáil Éireann Debate Vol. 746 No. 3 Unrevised )〕 The trial service was delivered at no additional cost to the Houses of the Oireachtas or the tax-payer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Houses of the Oireachtas to be Televised on UPC )〕 On 18 September 2012, Oireachtas TV moved to channel 207 following a positive public reaction to the service.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oireachtas TV moves to channel 207 on UPC )〕 It launched on Sky on 17 September 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Houses of the Oireachtas Channel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
