Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) John Brady: On the bill that has been paid, as we already know, a tax settlement of €1.2 million has been made with Revenue.

Is it RTÉ or has the Department been asked to foot it?

Chapter 4: Re-allocation of Voted Funding (22 Jun 2023) John Brady: My colleague, Deputy Imelda Munster, at a previous hearing of this committee described RTÉ's behaviour as that of a rogue employer, given what was endemic within the organisation in terms of the classification of workers and the impact of bogus self-employment on workers' rights and entitlements.
