RTÉ has insisted that its GAAGO pay-per-view service does not require CCPC permission to operate despite an enquiry into the operation by the consumer and competition body.

Earlier this summer the Consumer and Competition Protection Commission began a probe into the channel, which had originally been approved as an overseas platform to charge subscriptions for games.
