It is on page 112 of the annual report. It is normal to have the chief executive or board of directors. It also lists the directors' remuneration. In that year, Moya Doherty as chairperson received €31,000 and the ordinary members received €16,000. The witness can come back to us on this. They can send a paragraph to confirm it to us. I am not being personal, but it is regular that board remuneration crosses our desk.
I have a question or two more to ask. Will the witnesses talk to me about the sale of RTÉ's lands in Donnybrook and the impact it will have? It is something in the order of €100 million - I forget the figure. What will it do for RTÉ's balance sheet? It has loans of approximately €50 million. Will the witnesses tell us what happened? How helpful will it be to RTÉ's financial situation?
