Mr. Tubridy and his agent were paid out for services that were not provided, essentially. Mr. Tubridy said that, if asked, he will pay back that €150,000 to RTÉ. When previously challenged on why RTÉ paid out those payments, it said it was based on legal advice. What is now the position of RTÉ? Has RTÉ asked Mr. Tubridy and his agent to repay that €150,000 paid out for these notional gigs that were not provided? Mr. Tubridy said he will pay that money back, if asked. Has he been asked to pay that money back?
