Cormac Devlin: On the register of interests, Mr. Bakhurst has announced some changes. As I said, some of them are very welcome and needed.

Cormac Devlin: We heard a lot about revenue on Tuesday. Mr. Kelly said €100 million was brought into RTÉ commercially as a result of Mr. Tubridy's appearances. On the revenue for RTÉ as it stands right now, given all the revelations that have come out, the past couple of weeks have not been a good look or good fit for RTÉ.

Cormac Devlin: I thank the Cathaoirleach. I just want to join my colleagues in thanking Shane for everything he has done. The briefing packs and even, sometimes, the non-written briefing that he can give as one is walking in the door, are always very helpful. I wish him all the very best in his new role and, obviously, as well, congratulate Katherine. I am looking forward to working with her in the next...

Cormac Devlin: I thank our witnesses for their attendance this morning. Such is the issue surrounding this that Mr. Tubridy is right about people stopping him. Obviously, we are living in the same area and I know the high regard in which Mr. Tubridy is held and the respect people have for him, including kids who are wondering why the toy man is being in the news so much.
