Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion
Ms Dee Forbes:
As my colleague outlined, we can quantify the €60 million in broad buckets. We have given the information in detail to the Department and NewERA has been across it all. I am happy to take the Deputy through some of the detail in a separate forum if he wishes. The €60 million is a combination of a number of factors. No one measure will return RTÉ to a financially stable position. As Ms O'Keeffe noted, a number of factors have to be at play. Public funding has to be reformed, our commercial revenue has to be stabilised and we have to cut our costs. All three elements have to come together to make the savings possible.
