Marie Sherlock: On one side we have a guarantee of no pay cut and yet people earning that little money, which is a modest income, were going through pay cuts. How did Mr. Tubridy feel about those pay cuts?

Marie Sherlock: I have two final questions, which are important. Mr. Tubridy said a few times today that his job is in front of the microphone, with words and not with the accounts and that he leaves the process to others. As a contractor, Mr. Tubridy is a company director. Every year, he and another director have to sign a legal document as company directors. Mr. Tubridy has to verify and sign off...

Marie Sherlock: Actually, it is much more detailed than that. He signs off on the veracity of the accounts. When he signs off, does he not take an interest in where some of those payments originated?

Marie Sherlock: Lots of people want to see him back on air. Does he think that his integrity is damaged, given that he admitted earlier that he should have put up his hand? He received payments that none of us are happy with as regards them being ultimately for Mr. Tubridy's benefit, but were anonymised. Does he think his integrity is damaged?

Marie Sherlock: I thank the witnesses for appearing before the committee today. There has been a lot of controversy and unease about GAAGO. I want to ask Mr. McBennett a question about it being made free to care-giving establishments, hospitals and care homes. Obviously not every older person lives in a care home or a care-giving establishment. We have free public transport for people over a certain age....

Marie Sherlock: That is an issue for another day. There are several references to women's sport in the submission from RTÉ, but we have not heard anything about the plans in this regard. I heard what was said about the Women's World Cup next week, equality of treatment and camogie. Does the RTÉ sports department have plans to improve or expand the coverage of women's sport, especially in those...

Marie Sherlock: Coverage of League of Ireland matches is patchy. Games are shown on television, including Virgin Media, on some Fridays but not on others. I am picking up on the point made by Deputy Andrews. Can that coverage be improved?

Marie Sherlock: I thank the members of the board and the executive for attending the meeting and preparing all the documents that we received yesterday. Mr. Bakhurst has to grapple with the past and plan for the future. Has he had any co-operation from Dee Forbes or Jim Jennings in the course of his work since he took up his role?
