Pre-Legislative Scrutiny of the General Scheme of the Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill 2017 and Retransmission Fees: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Pat Kiely:
I will ask Ms Áine Ní Chaoindealbháin who is our director of operations to come in at this point. Ms Ní Chaoindealbháin previously held the post of general manager at UTV Ireland. She is unique in Irish broadcasting because she has worked in every single licence that has ever been in Ireland, including the old Sky News Ireland business, UTV Ireland, TG4 and RTE. We are delighted to have her at TV3. Áine now runs our operations area and has been responsible for investing the €5 million that Virgin Media has put into our infrastructure.
