Brian Stanley: There will be a second round, if the Deputy wants to come back in again. I have some questions myself. I want to start with RTÉ.

Brian Stanley: In relation to the licence fee, a Supplementary Estimate was sought back in 2022. According to the figures I have here, it was in the region of €15 million, as I understand it.
