Transparency of RTÉ Expenditure of Public Funds and Governance Issues: RTÉ (Resumed)
Mr. Mike Fives:
In terms of revenue, no. This is additional revenue that we would not have earned. The reason we engage with these three barter agencies is that this involves different commercial partners that you would not necessarily get through the regular big six agencies in Ireland. I think what Mazars is referring to there is in terms of the purchase of goods. There is not necessarily a saving to be made for RTÉ through the purchase of goods and services. I would agree with that.
