Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Engagement with Coimisiún na Meán on the 2023 Work Programme
Mr. R?n?n ? Domhnaill:
Again, it is in light of a recommendation from the Future of Media Commission report. It is twofold, essentially. We will align for the gender equality, diversity and inclusion strategy to make sure there is adequate coverage in sports broadcasting of those areas. In addition, Healthy Ireland and Sport Ireland have an initiative as regards getting people to run, jog, swim and cycle more and it is looking at where we can get sports broadcasting involved in that as well. We hope to kick off that strategy in the early part of next year.
