Broadcasting (Funding) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
The Minister is aware that Dóchas is an umbrella organisation for approximately 33 non-governmental organisations. Those NGOs have put Ireland on the map and have helped to establish Ireland's position in the international marketplace. I propose to table an amendment on Report Stage to section 2 on new television and radio programmes to foster understanding of the global dimensions of Irish society. I hope the Minister will seriously consider the amendment.
