Houses of the Oireachtas Commission Appropriation Account 2018

Mr. Peter Finnegan:

It is hosted everywhere. In designing and rolling out the service we were really conscious that people should be able to watch the proceedings in the Oireachtas no matter what platform they used. It is hosted, first and foremost, on Saorview, which is a free service. That is important as many people have it as a second service within their household. We also have it on Sky. The signals are transmitted to the satellite and down again. It is on what is now called Virgin Media and also available on the web. It is carried on every platform operating in Ireland.
