My next question is for Mr. Farrell and Ms Ní Chaoindealbháin. Virgin Media Television does not have the comfort of public funding from the licence fee. Its analysis is of a changing marketplace where people may be migrating. It depends on advertisers. In terms of assessing its future, is it the case that Virgin Media Television, as a private enterprise, will be seeking investment from the State to ensure the public content aspect it produces is retained?
