I thank all the witnesses. I have two quick questions, the first of which is for the Department. How does the Department anticipate the expanded role of audience council to play out, particularly in respect of public service content provision?

My second question relates to the issue of the archives, which are important from an historical perspective. Has any consideration been given to the custodianship and care of archive material not just from the State broadcaster but also from other broadcasters, to include independent content that is produced? What is the role for the National Archives of Ireland for such material? It is important from an historical perspective and for research study, etc.
