That was another disastrous decision. How will we get any answers? It seems as though there was some ready-up and she exited with all the evidence. This is shocking. That is why I called for a Garda investigation. It will be needed at the outcome, with no disrespect to any of the witnesses. That is what is needed because the public have lost all respect. In fairness, 50:50:20 was mentioned. The loyalty bonus is like something from the lotto. Loyalty to who or what? People are struggling and in the pandemic RTÉ overwhelmingly promoted and frightened many people, but that is not for today. I discussed that with Ms Forbes in a previous committee meeting. Loyalty to whom? Who is the RTÉ board loyal to?
