I want to ask about the transmission fees as well. I would like to know what progress has been made in gathering them. That is where a lot of revenue could be collected. Has the Minister considered the impact on An Post if collection of fees is moved from it to Revenue or RTÉ itself? Can the Minister comment on the overall vision for having Revenue collect the television licence fees? It will go down like a lead balloon if another tax is taken out of wages to pay for this. Can the Minister comment on those three things?
