We expect to see RTÉ's new strategic plan and I think the director general is supposed to be publicising it this month. If we get the new strategic plan and if RTÉ is saying what is going to be different at a top level in the broadcaster, how will the Minister measure that against the investigations that will not be completed until year end, in the context of decisions made on funding and so on? If RTÉ launches its new strategic plan and says there are levels of oversight at X, Y and Z, and, we hope, sanctions and so on in an effort to regain public trust, at what stage will a decision be made about funding, given the other investigations will not be finished until the end of the year and we will not know the full story until we see the results of those investigations?
