Criminal Justice (Temporary Release of Prisoners) Bill 2001: Committee Stage. - Local Radio Licensing: Motion.
We need to consider the experience to date, see what lessons can be learned and take stock of the current range of services on offer. We also need to look outward and draw on the experiences of other European countries and consider how they have developed independent radio. Most importantly, we need to plan for the future to ensure we maximise the quality and range of listening opportunities for Irish audiences. Again, I congratulate the committee on its work and its initiative in bringing forward this report. I look forward to today's debate.
