The secretariat will correspond on the matter with RTÉ. Separate from that, I will ask the clerk to correspond with Revenue inquiring if it has any problem around the disclosure of settlements similar to this settlement. Revenue will not want to publish the details, but we will ask if it has any problem with a body, company or entity which makes a settlement with it - in this case RTÉ - disclosing the settlement figure? Is that agreed? Agreed.
No. 590B is from Ms Oonagh McPhillips, Secretary General, Department of Justice, dated 17 May 2021, providing information requested by the committee in regard to legal awards and compensation. It is proposed to note and publish this correspondence. Deputy Catherine Murphy flagged this matter for discussion.
