Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

The Leas-Chathaoirleach might be interested in a suggestion I wish to make. I request that part of the licence fee given to, and squandered by, RTÉ should be dedicated to real local radio to provide services for local people. My local station, Shannonside Northern Sound, provides an excellent service, which is not what we get from RTÉ. If I had to rely on RTÉ to get onto a radio station, I would never be heard. It is only Shannonside which provides that to me.
