Jerry Buttimer (CC), Labour Panel

The Senator is in injury time. At the risk of causing the ire of others, the point the Senator made was very worthwhile. As a Cork person, I am very disappointed to see that four, potentially, of Cork's matches will be behind a paywall. I am in favour of GAAGO but it is a conflict of interest for RTÉ. We pay the licence fee and pay a second time to watch things. The Senator made a good point. I agree with him. I should not interfere but I cannot help myself because it is very wrong.
