I apologise for interrupting Ms Forbes but I have a question that must be asked. Has RTÉ come forward with a concrete business plan to the relevant Departments that need to provide it with this additional funding to bring it out of that hole? Is that something the station is proactively doing? The drama, "Normal People", for example, was extremely successful. It was an original drama and obviously had assistance internationally. Extraordinary things can be done when minds are put together and new talent is brought in. RTÉ has demonstrated with "Love/Hate" and other shows that it has created in the past number of years that it can be very successfully done. I am at a bit of a loss as to why that is not done more by the station. In terms of coming to the Government with a concrete business plan for support, taking away the television licence issue for one moment, is that something the station is doing, undertaking or has done already in the course of the past five months?
