I, like the Minister and my colleagues, learn a great deal from the media and we have to read it there rather than perhaps our first choice which would be that we get this information at the committee. On exit packages again, we know Ms O’Keeffe, where this started off, got a package of €450,000. We read at the weekend that a former head of current affairs in RTÉ received a package. Was the Minister across this, was she aware of it or was did she, like the rest of us, read about it in the media, specifically about Mr. Nally?
