I again refer to section 29 of the Broadcasting Act 2009, whereby both public service broadcasters are required to be independent in their day-to-day operations, which includes editorial independence, a concept I believe the Deputy accepts. Of course, as I said, I understand how it is upsetting for people living on the island of Ireland to see part of their island removed from maps depicted by a public service broadcaster, but I do not think we should prescribe in legislation what RTÉ and TG4 can or cannot display or show. It would set a wider precedent for the regulation of very specific types of content in primary legislation.
