Programme E - Broadcasting (20 Jan 2022) Neasa Hourigan: With the best will in the world, during the process of preparing for this session I have read through reams of information about licence fees and remuneration for employees and contractors. I find it hard to believe that RTÉ could not compile a report on the gender pay gap if An Post and other groups can do it, considering the fact that one of RTÉ’s remits is around...

If there was a will within the organisation to provide that information, it would have been done. Is Ms Forbes telling me RTÉ could not do it?
