The key issue is that the 116 findings from the three reports are covered. Three and four of them fit under some of the 21 recommendations made by this committee. There is the extra cash amounting to more than €670,000, which Deputy Murphy was correct about, but it is time to move on. I want to flag that RTÉ is due to report to us by June with an update on its progress with implementation. I suggest that the committee writes to RTÉ to notify it of that and state that we expect a report by then on our 21 recommendations. We will send our communication to the Minister, Deputy Catherine Martin, and the new chair of the RTÉ board, Mr. Terence O'Rourke. It should probably be sent to the chair of the RTÉ board, in the first instance, maybe more so than the director general, Mr. Kevin Bakhurst.
