Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Whose rules are these specifically? Are they RTÉ rules or different rules? I do not mean statutory rules, because that is obvious.

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: All right. I have brands that tell me that is not so and that they have looked to advertise on RTÉ and to try to develop their brand on television to those eyeballs, and have not been able to or have been cut off, having advertised previously either in the RTÉ Guide or on other RTÉ platforms. It might be something to go back to.

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: No problem. I want to ask about the material provided in the RTÉ briefing document at page 5. It states that total television trading revenue, including sponsorship, declined by 8.1% overall and a number of expected sponsorships did not materialise due to changes in the programme schedule and a number of delayed productions. What was the value of those expected sponsorships that did...

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: In 2019, RTÉ was talking about a cost-saving measure of approximately €60 million over three years. Can Ms Forbes outline to the committee specifically how much has been realised from that?

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I appreciate that because I have had the opportunity to read into that. I am just asking how much has been saved. I know Covid happened, there was decline in revenues and the Government supplanted a lot of that with its own advertising revenues, and so on. I just need to know how much of that €60 million cost-saving measure was actually implemented.

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Excuse me for interjecting and I only do that because of time constraints. There is a huge focus in the RTÉ materials on the €65 million and how much RTÉ needs that. There is a cost-saving project of €60 million, which is important, yet in the RTÉ materials, beyond the realisation of non-evasion of licence fees as being plan A, I do not see a plan B or a plan C....

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I am glad the Minister of State, Deputy Rabbitte, and Deputy Gannon highlighted the #NotAllMen movement that emerged last week because it is all women, and all women all the time. It has to be called out.
