A Strategy Framework Group for the Audiovisual Content Production Industry was established by my Department last year. This Group, by examining the sector, will assist in providing a clear vision for the future of the industry and a response to market changes.

The Group will examine the whole area of the Irish audiovisual industry, including the computer and video games sector. I anticipate receipt of the Report in the early Autumn.
