Public Accounts Committee

Appropriation and Expenditure of Public Moneys by RTÉ (Resumed): RTÉ

9:30 am

Mr. Kevin Bakhurst:

We need to continue and accelerate change in the organisation, both the culture of it and also the way we deliver to audiences. During my interview process, I presented a strategy about what we wanted to do with the organisation. This was particularly about reaching all audiences, continuing to invest in our digital products and maintaining investment in high-quality content.

Regarding the size of the organisation, I think a lot of that is contingent on the way we change it. We are committed to spending more in the independent sector over time. A lot of it is also contingent on funding going forward, which is an issue that has already been touched on here
