I welcome the chairman and general secretary of RTÉ, Ms Doherty and Ms Forbes, respectively. In her opening statement Ms Doherty said that she was one those who called for The Future of Media Commission. Is it frustrating to her or Ms Forbes that we have yet to see the publication of the report of The Future of Media Commission? The commission's inaugural meeting was on 29 October 2020 and it was required to report within nine months, which brought us to 29 July 2021. Come this Saturday, it will be, at least, six months' since the Minister received the report of The Future of Media Commission. Is that frustrating for Ms Doherty and Ms Forbes?
