Note: BBC NI and UTV are based in Northern Ireland, RTÉ and Virgin Media Television in the Republic of Ireland. However all four are available to most viewers throughout the island of Ireland, with UTV now accepting advertising from the Republic and targeting some of its programmes specifically at viewers in the Republic. Access to the Republic's stations (but in particular TG4) in Northern Ireland was a requirement of the Good Friday Agreement peace deal in 1998, but this has yet to be fully implemented (mainly due to frequency spectrum issues).
