Transparency of RTÉ Expenditure of Public Funds and Governance Issues: Discussion (Resumed)

We have lost €20 million in licence fee revenue since this started. It is a small outlet for a huge return. Would you not have thought of pivoting the message? It is not just RTÉ that benefits. Independent broadcasters and production companies from this too. You pulled the advertising. Was this strategic? Was it part of hoping that the licence fee would ultimately fail completely and collapse-----
