I do not want to be disrespectful to Mr. Kelly, but he comes from a background selling chocolate and is now negotiating on behalf of the top stars in the country. He has had great success at that. How deals are done is a fascinating subject in a lot of people's minds. What does Mr. Kelly's leverage when negotiating derive from? RTÉ has previously told this committee that Mr. Tubridy and other popular stars who are very good at their job would walk. Mr. Kelly has said today that is not the case. Where does that leverage come from?
