RTE is to get a license fee increase. I cant really complain about it since it is a surprisingly small €3 bringing the license fee to €158. As the press release points out with inflation running at 3.8% the increase could have been €6.
The extra license fee should bring give RTE an extra €2m in 2006 or almost €4m in a full year for investment in a couple of spare Pat Kennys, some acting lessons for the cast of Fair City, a new Eamon Dunphy, and there may even be change left over for digital TV (but don't bet on it).

I allow people to comment anonymously, many blogs dont. If you want to express an opinion and throw insults my way but are afraid to back up your statements with an ID at least back up your opinions and insults with a logical argument.
Unfortunately due to spammers and people posting libel comments I've turned on moderation and just deleted the spam comments.
