Ms Fiona O'Shea:

I thank the Deputy. I am the group financial controller at RTÉ. At our previous session I had used the phrase "an initial payment" because the matter of a Revenue audit was ongoing at the time and it was not clear to us at that point whether any further payments would be due in respect of the audit investigation by the Revenue Commissioners. We received confirmation of the conclusion of that audit in June 2021 subsequent to our meeting and I believe we shared that communication with this committee. No further payment was made. The settlement payment that was made to Revenue is as we had outlined.
