As I said at the time, and to repeat myself because I have just said it to the Senator too, when that report came out I said I had confidence in the board as it is working now and I await the recommendations of the expert advisory committee. It is very important, however, for the stability of this organisation that I am very much looking forward to meeting the board this week. We need to appoint a new chair as soon as possible and to work with that board with a new chair and with the DG, to get RTÉ on a stable footing and, most importantly, to make the decision once and for all on a funding model not only for RTÉ but for public service media.
