Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Irish Film Industry: Discussion

1:30 pm

Mr. David Collins:

I reiterate the point about not just thinking in silos. It is very important to bring education into this. It is very important not to forget the key role the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment has in this area. RTÉ is the single biggest full-time employer in the audiovisual sector in Ireland and has been for 50 years. Let us not forget that RTÉ has a very significant role to play, potentially, in training. Discussion of training seems always to centre on the Dublin area.

What about training in Galway?
