As I set out in response to questions at the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport and Media on 27 February 2024, no formal communication was received with regard to confirmation that RTÉ's Remuneration and Management Development Committee gave approval for an exit package in respect of any RTÉ employee after 26 September 2023 and before 14 February 2024.

372. To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if the HR and culture report she commissioned into RTÉ will involve interaction with staff outside of the HR Department; if she is aware that one anonymised survey appears to be the only such engagement to date; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

In July 2023, I appointed independent Expert Advisory Committees to undertake Reviews in respect of RTÉ of Governance and Culture; and of Contractor Fees, HR and Other Matters, respectively.
As the Expert Advisory Committees are independent, it would not be appropriate for me to comment on the engagement of either Committee with relevant persons.
However, I expect that the Reviews will set out the range of stakeholders and persons consulted by each Expert Advisory Committee.
