Bakhurst’s plan to “reconstitute” the executive board, the Grant Thornton review and engaging with RTE staff are top of the agenda
Media Minister Catherine Martin has requested to meet chairwoman of the RTE board Siun Ni Raghallaigh and incoming director general Kevin Bakhurst in the coming days.
Much of the focus centred on the workings of a UK-based “barter” account used by RTE to pay for certain services and tickets and trips related to corporate entertaining. It comes after Irish premier Leo Varadkar said he could not rule out the possibility that some payments made by RTE may have been on the wrong side of the law.
“I don’t think we can rule out the fact that it’s not just a case of irregular payments, that some of these payments may have been on the wrong side of the law. But don’t want to jump to that conclusion.”
