To reply to Deputy Munster, we wrote to RTÉ seeking these figures on 14 May. Subsequently, we followed it up with further correspondence seeking that, but it has not given the figures. It is disappointing that it has not, given that it is the public broadcaster. We are not dealing with a fiefdom here or with a private company that is beyond the reach of the Committee of Public Accounts. We are dealing with the public broadcaster that receives a substantial amount of public funds. The fact is the figures are not available to us. Does Deputy Munster wish to respond in light of the information I have given, to crystallise what she is proposing?
