I thank the Cathaoirleach and welcome the Minister and her team. The Minister's statement to us tonight in respect of the events of last week sets out that on two separate occasions last week the Minister asked the chair if there a formal approval role for the board and on two occasions Siún Ní Raghallaigh said quite clearly to the Minister, "No". When the RTÉ chair corrected her version of these events last Thursday, did the Minister feel she had been lied to by the chair?
