Brian Leddin (Limerick City, Green Party) | Oireachtas source

First, I support Deputy O'Dea's call for the decision to be made on St. John's. As regards my own question, the Taoiseach might consider discussing with the Minister, Deputy Martin, and other colleagues, with respect to the review of public service broadcasting and the terms of reference, that the impact of advertising on climate action be looked at because it seems to me that advertising works. That is why these large companies spend so much money on it, and it does influence people's decisions. Often it influences them to make our lives harder as legislators because they might make decisions that are not good for the climate, even though they might wish to do so. I ask for the Taoiseach's support that, in the context of the review of funding for public service broadcasting, that be looked at.
