Impact of Covid-19 on the Film and Television Industry: Discussion
Ms Désirée Finnegan:
On the audiovisual media services directive, that presents a significant opportunity for Irish content and content-makers. It would provide for a 30% quota of European works, which would be significant for Irish companies. It also insists on the prominence of that quota. On the levy front, we feel an additional funding stream would be incredibly important for the industry so we are supportive of that.
