I thank everyone for being here. It is a really interesting session to have so many disparate voices and different voices from across the sector. I am really enjoying the discussion so far.
I want to build on some of Deputy Carrigy’s questions. On some of the advertising funding that has shifted into big tech, do the witnesses support the view of platforms as publishers? I will first put that to Mr. Kelly and Mr. Purcell. This is around platforms and publishers and the idea that big tech should be regulated in the same way.
