Mr. Séamus Dooley:

The thing to watch is the impact on services in small ways. Areas that are not able to offer up voluntary redundancies will be required to achieve savings in other ways. They can be small changes that are not dramatic but have an impact. For example, it could be something as simple as the fact that, without any announcement, "It Says In The Papers" no longer is on RTÉ on a Saturday or Sunday. That has a huge impact. It is a big day for the newspaper industry. That is a simple change. It is not a big cost but those kind of minor things have an impact and that is the concern. That is the sort of salami slicing that inevitably happens when you have a redundancy programme.
