Ms Si?n N? Raghallaigh:

As I understand it, a review is being undertaken by RTÉ regarding the grading of employees. I believe there are more than 160 grades and a fundamental review of the entire situation is under way. This will include every aspect of the organisation, including those employees the Deputy spoke about. This review process is due to finish with its recommendations later this year. I think it will be in the third quarter. I understand that exactly what the Deputy is talking about is being dealt with within that undertaking, within the overall organisational structure. It would, of course, then come into play in that context.
