Imelda Munster: I want to talk about the funding overall. It is complex insofar as it is broad. In Screen Ireland's briefing, it was stated that funding was coming from television broadcasters, online services, the State, the EU and the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland but I wonder whether there is a funding graph that could be forwarded to the committee, perhaps later in the week, to give us an outline...
