Cormac Devlin: Can I just ask about the McCann FitzGerald report? We scheduled this meeting in advance of the summer hoping we would have it by now. I understand it is out of Mr. Bakhurst's hands but it is expected. Does he have an estimated time of when it is due to be complete?

Cormac Devlin: In terms of the exit packages themselves, I think it was Ms Cusack who responded earlier. Is it correct that the packages were in 2017 and 2021?

Cormac Devlin: They kept them open. It was a cultural thing that an individual who was leaving RTÉ on a very good salary had probably quite a good degree of influence in terms of their exit package and the shape of that package. Would that be fair to say?

Did Mr. Collins resign formally yesterday or was that previous to yesterday?

With regard to the others who have exited the organisation, we are waiting to hear from some and others who we would like to come before the committee have just point-blank refused. Has Mr. Bakhurst, as the new director general, had contact from Ms Forbes, Ms Moran, Ms O'Leary or any of those?
