The new thing that we have had in recent years of Government of Ireland announcements on the radio has been helpful in alerting people to things that are happening, because many people in this country listen to the radio. I appreciate that the area of communications and media is a rapidly evolving one and that we must be open enough to ensure that we are speaking to all the relevant demographics and constituencies that access their information through different media. Those radio advertisements have certainly been helpful. We will consider what the Minister of State said before Report Stage regarding how we could make suggestions then, but hopefully the Minister of State will take on board what we are saying as well.
