It is interesting when Mr. Mullen speaks about the reducing revenue RTÉ is getting from fossil fuel intensive industries. Notwithstanding that electric vehicles are lighter on the environment, when they become heavier, that creates other problems.

My concern is that I am not receiving a straight answer and given RTÉ's revenues are reducing - it is almost a starvation scenario for it at the moment - and that RTÉ has quite clearly set out that it is a commercial entity that wants to maximise the amount of revenue it gets in, I wonder what lengths RTÉ will go to in order to hold on to fossil fuel advertising. Mr. Mullen is not giving me much clarity on it.
