Approval of any RTÉ pension scheme is required under Section 15 of the Broadcasting Act, 1960. A scheme submitted to the Minister under this section shall, if approved of by the Minister with the concurrence of the Minister for Finance, be carried out by the Authority in accordance with its terms. Officials from my Department are continuing to engage with officials from the Department of Finance to progress RTÉ pension issues.
