The Director General of TG4 has called for an overhaul of the funding model for broadcasting and a strong regulator to deal with the challenges within the sector.
Speaking to the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Media, Tourism, Arts, Culture, Sport and the Gaeltacht, Alan Esslemont said that the independent production sector in Ireland is currently in a difficult situation.
He said TG4 believed that RTÉ should have the public funding required to meet its obligations, but the equivalent amount should be shared by TG4, Screen Ireland and Broadcasting Authority of Ireland's Sound and Vision Fund.
