    • The Broadcasting Act 2009 is signed into law. Many of the provisions of the Act relating to RTÉ also apply to TG4, with the station being subject to regulation from the new Broadcasting Authority of Ireland once the relevant provisions are commenced. The Act also changes the English-language title of the chief executive of TG4 to "Director-General" in line with RTÉ, and in the Irish language from "Ceannasaí" to "Ardstiúrthóir".[7] There have been two Chief Executives of TG4, Cathal Goan (former Director-General of RTÉ from 1996 to 2000)[8] and the current Director General, Pól Ó Gallchóir.
    • Section 113 of the Act changes the name of RTÉ from "Radio Telefís Éireann" to "Raidió Teilifís Éireann", in order to reflect the 'proper' spelling of the name in Irish. However, the station retains its "Radio Telefís Éireann" logo at the entrance to its Donnybrook headquarters in Dublin.

Four days earlier, on 21 September callers to the Liveline radio show on RTÉ Radio 1 had complained about the phone charges and methods used for the programme. Host Joe Duffy stated that many of his listeners and callers had not got a satisfactory reply from TV3 in relation to their complaints and hence his reason for this section of his show, and that TV3 was unwilling to be a part of the discussion show having been asked by RTÉ Radio. Some of the contestants had not been paid their prize money. TV3 advised viewers who played the game to go to RegTel with any complaints.
