Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 February 2005
170 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources his proposals to assist, directly or indirectly, TG4 with reference to home-produced material; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6007/05]
View answerMy Department provides significant public funding for TG4 to enable it to provide an Irish language television service. The 2005 Estimates includes a provision of €24.858 million for TG4. Decisions in relation to the commissioning of programmes are a matter for TG4. I have no role in the matter.
