There is further delving to be done then into the knowledge in the Department, but I will make one closing comment. This entire mess since June right through to now is certainly not of the Minister's making but it is still a mess. RTÉ, unfortunately, is in bits. It is in pieces and badly needs to be thrown a lifeline. The staff deserve it and the people of Ireland deserve a proper functioning public broadcasting service, and the sooner we draw a line under all of this, the better, so that we can move on. People are tired of it and it is high time this process of rebuilding, which is supposed to be well under way, finally starts.
