I thank the Minister for her opening statement. I want to touch on a few issues. The first is the forensic investigation that Mazars is carrying out into the barter accounts, the mismanagement and misuse of the barter accounts, the 35% in additional costs that were paid every time there was a transaction, etc. The Minister said that the advisory committee has got the extension to investigate further, and that is to be welcomed. Has she ever considered, as part of the reform or the funding criteria, that RTÉ would discontinue the use of the barter account, given all we now know about what went on with the barter accounts? Has the Minister considered that they stop the use of them?
