I thank the Chair for the clarification. We need more than apologies. I questioned Ms Doherty at the committee here about the discrimination against female employees being forced to leave at 65 years of age when contracts were being signed with male employees up until the age of 70. This has been going on and the rot has been in there for a long time.

We have been told here today that those involved deliberately circumvented the process regarding the musical. Does RTÉ, and our witnesses, as executives and non-executives, feel betrayed by these former staff members? How do they intend to deal with that? Why would they reappoint Deloitte in view of what went on? Can our guests answer those questions first, please?
