Mr. Jim Jennings:

I think there is, to be honest. One only has to read this morning's newspapers, which mentioned the company returns of somebody who has left our company. They have gone up significantly in the last couple of years, so obviously there is a market out there. Our assessment is that of the top ten broadcasters in the country, five work in RTÉ and five are in the independent sector. That is our honest assessment of it.

I will also add a further point. The director general has noted that our top talent is really important to us but our top talent cannot produce programmes without the production team. I am always cognisant of the fact that it is not just the top talent; it is the production teams, that is, those who work with them on a daily basis. It would be remiss of me if I did not say that.
