I have one final question for Mr. Bakhurst, and Senator Cassells alluded to this point. We were told here very clearly by Mr. Tubridy that he had no issue paying the €150,000 back to RTÉ that he clearly had not done the work for, and that was regardless of whether he continued to work for RTÉ or not. I am not saying Mr. Bakhurst only half answered the question but I want to be clear: has that money been paid back or is it Mr. Bakhurst's understanding that it now will not be paid back?
