View answerOn Friday, 8 September 2023 I carried out the official launch of Cúla4, the dedicated Irish language children’s television channel. The official launch took place at TG4’s headquarters at Baile na hAbhann in Co. Galway. While at TG4 for the event, I took the opportunity to meet with the Chairperson of TG4, Ms. Anna Ní Ghallachair, the TG4 Board and the Director General of TG4, Mr. Alan Esslemont. While my next meeting with the Chair has not yet been formally scheduled, I intend to meet her in Q2 2024 and arrangements will be made in due course.
The Secretary General of my Department most recently met with the Chairperson and the Director General at TG4's offices on 9th February last and my officials maintain regular contact with TG4 as required under the Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies.
