Revised General Scheme of the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill: Discussion

My question is for Screen Ireland, the Department or Coimisiún na Meán. Part 6 of the Bill considers the media fund and funding of public service content. It provides for user-generated content being eligible for public funding, including, for example, TikTok videos and others. The producer of this content would be posting from his or her account on these platforms. Would oversight mechanisms to assess the suitability of platforms for the distribution of that content be further scrutinised?
Do the witnesses think that is adequate?
