You have to look at the quantum of funding. There is what will be provided in the budget in relation to that €16 million recommendation from the Future of Media Commission to make sure it does not fall but, rather than an expectation of receiving the money, the tables have turned and there is now an expectation that RTÉ expects us to put conditionality on it as a direct consequence of what we have seen in this controversy. There will have to be conditionality of some sort. It cannot just be "as you were".
