Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy's concern for the rainbow Government is touching and is noted.

The Department has no plans on the matter. I remind the Deputy that we are faced with a variety of media from national and international sources. There are potential difficulties down the line in terms of regulation of the domestic media, almost to the exclusion or independent of what is happening globally. The world has changed dramatically.
