It's taken an age to get to this point, and when you read the article it says no final decision has been made. It's fairly likely that an election will take place before this is resolved so it becomes the problem of the next Government. Of all the issues that are currently facing Ireland this is way down the list, yet it's the one that seems to annoy a sizeable amount of people a lot. I'm not entirely sure keeping the licence fee is a vote winner and getting the revenue commissioners involved will only drive voters further away.

People really don't feel they're getting value for money from RTE, it's hard to find anyone outside of the organisation cheering it on.
