I thank the guests for their contributions so far. With regard to the commission announced by the Government today, it will make recommendations on the role, financing and structures of RTÉ. Does Ms Forbes feel her plan has been undermined by this announcement? Will her plan now change? Where is the credence in her plan? It seems a lot of what she announced a month ago has either been taken off the table by the Government or is being debated. Will we see a new plan from her, the board and the senior team? Will we have to redo what we are doing now in a few months time? I would like Ms Forbes to comment on this point.
