Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Media, Communications, Culture and Sport

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

2:00 am

Ms Deirdre Ní Choistín:

Trust in news is highest in Finland, according to yesterday's Reuters Digital News Report. It really invests in PSM. That is something we need to do.

The objectives of TG4 are vastly different from those of other PSMs. We have a very different remit as an Irish language broadcaster. We must support economic goals, social goals and language transmission as well as being entertaining and informing our audiences. We have a large remit that must be recognised in the legislation.
