Ms Si?n N? Raghallaigh:

As I said in the opening statement, I believe there is that conflict. It is what we have to address. When there is a dual-funded model for the public service broadcaster, this is, unfortunately, what happens. That is the big question. What do we want in our public service media? What way do we want it to be funded? I am looking at all the areas around that. The dual-funded model is what is mandated for us to work with. We have to work with it. Obviously, this is a result of trying to operate within that model while at the same time working within a funding structure where advertising revenue is plateauing, to put it mildly, and will start to go downwards. In fact, it has already. Finding other sources of income to keep that level of commercial income within the organisation is challenging. On the other side of that there is a licence fee structure that is not recognising the basis for the licence fee and how it should be charged. We have to have a grown-up conversation about that now. We are coming to a moment in time where we have to have that conversation.
