Transparency of RTÉ Expenditure of Public Funds and Governance Issues: Discussion (Resumed)

Six hours later, in my opinion, we are no further on. I genuinely mean that, with my hand on my heart, in terms of what we are trying to set out to do here. Regarding the whole issue of the arrangement that was put in place with RTÉ, the deliberate falsifying of an invoice to channel money deceitfully from RTÉ through Astus back to Mr. Tubridy - all of that - those questions are now left hanging in the air and, six hours later, we are no further on with regard to restoring the reputation. That, to me, is a sad reflection of the engagement we have had today.
