I thank Ms Forbes and the other witnesses for coming before the committee. Does Ms Forbes accept that the idea of a ringfenced tax to fund public service broadcasting in general, and RTÉ in particular, may be an idea that has run its course when we do not have, for example, a housing levy to deal with the crisis of homelessness that we face or other more acute problems we face as a society?
