I thank the witnesses for coming in today. To reiterate, we were disappointed with the response from RTÉ when it came before us two years ago. This is why we have decided to bring the witnesses back today. We had a list we could have chosen from but we specifically wanted RTÉ to come in and answer questions on advertising. Given Mr. Deans's and Mr. Mullen's responses to the earlier questions, they were at pains to explain how the advertisers themselves want to explain to the general public that they are sustainable.

Does RTÉ think it is here to speak for the commercial interests of those adverting on RTÉ? I do not. I think this is about RTÉ and not who is advertising.
