Mr. Kevin Bakhurst:

I assure the Deputy that we will provide those. Off the top of my head, since 2008 the level of the TV licence fee has not increased but the level of evasion has increased. The number of households is relatively steady but has fallen a bit. Where there has been a big gap has been in the commercial income since 2008. Obviously, it fell substantially after the financial crisis, which meant that the overall income for RTÉ fell substantially over that period. We will provide the exact figures for you.
