Mr. Donnacha McKeon:

The information I have is that they are being paid the same rates. Again, the situation is that the roles they are doing are part-time roles and have always been designated as part-time roles. There can be some confusion in terms of other allegations that have happened in other parts of the broadcast industry where there were people who were essentially performing full-time duties but being kept on part-time contracts. This is not that. These workers have been informed that their work is related to the live proceedings only.
