——to get it passed as quickly as possible — that has been indicated to me — BCI can then advertise for multiplexes for companies to put forward. RTE has indicated to me that it will move very quickly. It is making arrangements for the first multiplex and I hope we would have an overlap between the period the DTT would be available here and the analogue switch off in the BBC. Currently, it appears we will have that and therefore there will not be any loss in that regard.
