Broadcasting (Funding) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
Senator Quinn referred to the global experience. Section 2(1)(a)(vii) of the Bill refers to "the Irish experience in European and international contexts". I am somewhat reluctant to broaden this section of the Bill, as it could lead to the fund being expended by broadcasters doing programmes from all over the world. This finite fund is aimed specifically at honing in on uniquely Irish experiences.
