Aengus Ó Snodaigh (SF), Dublin South-Central

I welcome the timetable, but there is only a month left in autumn. Hopefully, addressing all of the complexities involved will not delay the Bill’s passage. Among the public and in this House, there has been a demand over the years, not just because of the most recent scandals in RTÉ, for the station to be held to account for how it spends public moneys. For years, it has been one of those organisations that was involved in bogus self-employment and other issues. I hope the general scheme will address matters and that there will be no delay. I appeal to the Minister to consider, if possible, asking for pre-legislative scrutiny of her Bill to be waived so that we can ensure its passage before the Government’s term concludes.
