Ms Moya Doherty:

As Ms Forbes said, we all have our favourites. We all grew up in a certain area. There are programmes that we prefer to others. We do not always agree. That tension will always exist between public service media and the audience. Going back, the bigger picture is that the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, which is the regulatory body set up by the Government, recommended an increase of €30 million a year for RTÉ. The previous committee recommended in 2017 that there should be a change in the licence fee. If that umbrella overview is sorted now, we can make the programmes that everybody wants.
