Mr. Alex Chisholm:

I am happy to reply. Under the Communications Regulations Act, we are bound to uphold the law and ensure compliance. Members will appreciate that this sometimes means we must resort to the courts. We follow the procedure laid down by the statute, the Oireachtas's legislation, for doing that. When bringing those cases, we have every regard to economy.

Members have asked what costs we have had to bear. In all of our court cases in the past five years, we have never paid any other party's costs. In many cases, our costs have been paid by the other side because we have had good outcomes.
