Future Funding of Public Service Broadcasting: Discussion

Mr. Rory Coveney:

We would like as much certainty as the Deputy is seeking in relation to the future. Is it going to be a combination of cost reductions and stabilising commercial revenue, both of which are within our responsibility? It will require some brave decisions about the public funding of what most people here accept as a valuable resource.
