I thank Ms Forbes for that. We know RTÉ has already paid the Revenue Commissioners €1.2 million. We know that the Department of Social Protection is now coming after RTÉ and that the net has been widened to include 500 workers. Where the Department of Social Protection tells RTÉ to settle for not paying the workers or the employer PRSI, would Ms Forbes not think it morally right to ensure the employees or former employees are paid what they are entitled to? I am sure she could answer that on moral grounds.
