Transparency of RTÉ Expenditure of Public Funds and Governance Issues: Discussion
Mattie McGrath (Tipperary, Independent) | Oireachtas source
I am. This is a culture. She was forced to resign while male presenters were getting sweet deals to stay until 70. Court cases were mentioned that day. It cost the State a lot of taxpayers' money to defend the first case in which RTÉ was found against for discriminating against females and RTÉ lectures us day and night about equality. That happened under the watch of some of the board - perhaps not those present - and it will continue to happen because RTÉ can get away with it. Who is the board loyal to? Who is it supposed to serve?
