I have met with RTÉ to discuss a wide range of issues including their strategic vision for public service broadcasting, response to COVID 19 and current funding challenges, and intend to meet the broadcaster again shortly. In the interim, NewEra are continuing to engage with RTÉ in terms of its financial situation and officials in my Department are also scheduled to meet with RTE in in thecoming weeks.
