A new channel aimed at Irish people living in Britain has been named RTÉ International.
Public service broadcaster RTÉ is recruiting for positions including channel manager, according to the Irish Post. The service may now launch before the previous target date of St Patrick's Day next year.
The newspaper said RTÉ International would be a combination of RTÉ One and RTÉ Two with some programmes from TG4. Several RTÉ news bulletins will be carried live.
The channel, previously known as Diaspora TV, is expected to be broadcast free-to-air on digital satellite.
Ireland's communications minister Eamon Ryan said it would "provide the Irish abroad with a valuable link to home".
