I wish to talk about the future strategy and what that might mean for the media landscape, including the audiovisual sector, film, TV and radio.

If RTÉ cut 400 jobs and increased commissioning by 50%, what would the reality be for workers? Could the witnesses tell us what the state of play is for workers in the independent sector? Do the witnesses represent any of those workers? Is there trade union membership in that sector? Have we learnt anything from the symphony orchestra being moved to the National Concert Hall and children's programming being outsourced?
