I will start by saying that the way things are done in RTÉ around the culture is why we are here today. To my mind, lessons have not been learned if that is still the line that is being peddled here today around this so-called independent advice, that is, that is the way it has always been done and that is the culture within RTÉ. Lessons clearly have not been learned.

The document from May 2020 is a key piece of information that we have not been furnished with. I think I know why it is been withheld. The public will make up their own minds. This is certainly doing absolutely nothing to restore public confidence in RTÉ. Mr. Bakhurst said the TV licence renewals are down 39%. On foot of this meeting, I think that will further decrease, instead of confidence being restored. This is a critical piece of information. Has the Department seen that key piece of evidence, namely, the document from that Teams meeting? Has the Secretary General requested it?
