Transparency of RTÉ Expenditure of Public Funds and Governance Issues: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Geraldine O'Leary:
No, not on any trips. There was a question last week about whether the former head of news and current affairs who was at the Champions League match had come through barter or commercial. The answer is "No". He went personally. If we are going on a trip, it is always a matter of either a client or an agency. For example, when we were at a match in Edinburgh, we may have met up with the commentary team, who were already there, but we would not pay for them. We would not bring them.
