Ms Katherine Licken:

The report is not published. It is part of a deliberative process involving the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery, and Reform, Deputy Donohoe and the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Deputy Catherine Martin. The report suggests a licence fee shortfall between this year and next year of €60 million. It suggests interim funding of €16 million, which aligns with what the Future of Media Commission recommended. In the first instance, that would be what would have been required if none of this had happened. The report then estimates that another €40 million would be required. The balance of €20 million would be made up by RTÉ through cost savings and through its cash reserves. That is what the report recommends.
