To clarify, further payments to Revenue are possible, payments to the Department of Social Protection are likely, and payments to individuals concerned are probable. Therefore, there is potentially quite an amount of expenditure yet to be determined and paid. I want clarification on the financial planning framework for that at a time RTÉ is seeking additional funding from the State, Exchequer, taxpayer or licence payer, or however we want to describe it. We have a period in which there is an undisclosed amount that will have to be paid. How is that planned for in RTÉ's strategies and financial frameworks?
