Broadcasting (Amendment) Bill 2006: Committee Stage
3:00 pm
Brendan Kenneally (Fianna Fail)
I thank the Minister for responding to Senators who pointed out during the Second Stage debate that while the Bill gives RTE a remit to provide television services to the Irish abroad, it does not make specific provision for radio broadcasts. Is such a provision is necessary, however, given that RTE already broadcasts on long wave? I recall listening to Gaelic games while on holiday in France.
