Appropriation and Expenditure of Public Moneys by RTÉ (Resumed): Discussion
9:30 am
Ms Eimear Cusack:
There is one person who had retired. He had been in employment in the 1970s and he brought his own case for a particular adjudication. In the main, when you look at the contractor pool, these are people who are providing services to RTÉ but not necessarily full time. They could have a contract for a year but they are drawn in for particular projects. They were the groupings that were brought in. The review includes people who are currently employed but who were contractors before, people who have left and people who became employees as part of the Eversheds process. They were brought under the auspices of the Department's scope section. In the main, I think one or two cases date back to the 1980s and there are a number from the 1990s.
