    Anyone got links to info on any of this?

    Are Setanta still receiving money under the scheme?

    EDIT:

    The scheme is still active it seems

    EDIT 2

    In round 25 I see this
    84 Midas Productions
    Dick Warner's Great Irish Fishing Challenge
    TV
    Setanta Sports Ireland
    Entertainment Science/Nature/Environment
    Amount: €235,000
    Percentage Funding: 60
    English
    13 programmes
    00:25:00 duration each

    Have they found a way around the requirements by having an independent make the application?

    Else I fail to see how they are complying with the requirements for FTA access.

    How can I watch programming which is funded under the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland Sound & Vision Scheme
    Setanta Sports supports programming that is funded under the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland Sound & Vision Scheme and broadcasts this programming on a free to view basis such that it may be enjoyed by anybody with satellite equipment and viewing card regardless of whether they are subscribers to the Setanta Sports Pack. If you have a satellite set top box, but do not have a satellite viewing card, we will upon request send you free of charge a satellite viewing card to an address in the Republic of Ireland in order that you can enjoy the Sound & Vision Scheme funded programming.

    It appears that Setanta do still issue cards.
