Abstract
Results are reported of a search for pulsed emission from the Vela pul sar in data taken with the University of Adelaide's TeV gamma ray tele scope at Woomera. These results are compared with earlier claims for t he detection of emission modulated with the pulsar's spin period. Part icular attention is paid to data taken in the months following the Chr istmas 1988 Vela pulsar glitch.
