Michael McGrath (FF), Cork South-Central

I join the Ceann Comhairle, Deputy Doherty and others in thanking Martin for his service over all of those years. He has been a thorough gentleman to everyone and I wish him the best in his retirement. Thankfully his boxing skills were not called upon here. It may have seemed to come close a few times across the floor but thankfully he never had to intervene in that way.
I am not familiar with the detail of that individual case but I am sure the Minister, Deputy Martin, and her officials will follow up with RTÉ on that and perhaps have already done so. I can say that the work of making a decision on a sustainable funding basis for RTÉ into the future is well under way. There are ongoing meetings across Government and we are anxious to make a decision on that to provide certainty not just to RTÉ but to all of those who provide public service content in the country.
