TG4's capital allocation for 2020 is €3m which was an increase of €1m on the capital allocation for 2019.

I understand that TG4 planned expenditure for 2020 comprises €1m on programme commissioning, €1.5m on broadcasting projects which includes development of non-linear technical capability such as the Molsceal App and offline playback functionality as well as general capital equipment upgrades, €0.2m on licensing renewals for IT services and €0.22m on hardware upgrades.

TG4 publishes Annual Reports and Accounts each year which are publicly available on their website at www.tg4.ie and the 2020 Accounts due to be published in 2021 will provide a breakdown of expenditure for the year.
