The Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources should come before the House to discuss the proposed increase in the RTÉ licence fee. An increase in the subsidy to an authority such as RTÉ needs to be carefully considered, particularly in light of the fact that a television programme shown on Sunday afternoons contains explicit scenes of drug-taking and appears to condone under age sex involving a 14 year old. It is absolutely disgraceful and we should not facilitate an increased licence fee until RTÉ shows some form of responsibility.
