Mr. Ronan McCabe:

I was in Donnybrook last week for the launch of an animated shorts programme. I did something quite controversial in that I made some positive comments about RTÉ. From an animation point of view, RTÉ is quite supportive. It could always do better in respect of the money it puts in, and we say that to it all the time. Uncertainty at RTÉ is not good for our industry. When we take projects to market, having the support of the public service media in your own country unlocks other funding abroad. Having that imprimatur really helps your project. A stable RTÉ is good for the animation sector. It is a point worth making.
