"What do we do with RTÉ?"

Well, there was... Yeah, listen, and I'm not defending what happened in the past, not for a moment.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

God knows I talked about it on a different forum in my previous employment plenty, but there was a misstatement of fees is what they said.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

And as you said yourself, I mean, some of the people involved in that for health reasons haven't been

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

available to answer questions and it would be helpful if they were, but that doesn't look likely to change.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

But I keep coming back to the point with you, Maurice, in terms of where we are today, that the issue, the reason we're talking about this today is because the current management who took over found a problem and identified it and fixed it and told the minister.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

Well, that's kind of an impossible question to answer, isn't it?

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

They hope there's none, but...

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

No, they've done that.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

They've done that.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

And they're as confident as they can be.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

But no one can say 100% there's never going to be a problem in this organisation ever again, can they?

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

But I don't know, and I appreciate, listen, you probably won't watch it, but Kevin Backers did say a little bit earlier this afternoon at that committee that he went way down beyond the top 10.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

I think he said top 30 or 40.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

So, you know, way outside it to find out whether

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

there would be any issue like the Derek Mooney issue, or that there was anybody kind of classified in the wrong way and that we'd be here again, which nobody wants.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

And he said, no, there's not.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

There's a salary cap.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

You're not happy with the salary cap.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

You think it should be lower.

Liveline
"What do we do with RTÉ?"

So a new salary cap of €150,000.
