It is Mr. Lynch at this point in time. Therefore, really, all the bluster that Ms Ní Raghallaigh has come in here with about what she is going to do is only bluster, is it not? The witnesses have exposed RTÉ among them with a massive bill for compensation to someone they assert as having done nothing wrong. They have not just thrown them all under the bus, they have backed over them and reversed at speed. Can Mr. Lynch tell me whether he is going to be accountable in the future for when the compensation is paid? If Ryan Tubridy did nothing wrong, what was the basis and rationale for taking him off the air and paying him while he is off the air and paying another presenter to do his radio programme? Is Mr. Lynch going to be accountable?
