Tubridy launched former CMO Tony Holohan’s memoir We Need To Talk at private event in Dublin on Thursday
RTÉ eventually picked up the tab for all the payments made under the tripartite agreement, and also retrospectively adjusted the presenter’s published earnings downwards for the period 2017-2019 by subtracting a €120,000 payment which he forewent from the sums he was paid. A report by consultancy firm Grant Thornton stated that Mr Tubridy had no involvement in the adjustments made by RTÉ in 2020″ to the published earnings for 2017-2019.
Similarly, RTÉ said it was not in a position to comment on arrangements for its former chief financial officer Breda O’Keeffe, who was involved in negotiating Mr Tubridy’s contract in 2020, and left the station shortly afterwards under a voluntary exit package. During an appearance before the Oireachtas media committee, Ms O’Keeffe said she had availed of a voluntary exit package in 2020, which was subsequently raised by RTÉ trade unions who called for clarification about the terms of the exit deal. The broadcaster has now appointed legal firm McCann Fitzgerald to investigate two voluntary exit schemes, with director general Kevin Bakhurst seeking the report by the end of this month.
At the end of April, Mr Tubridy’s solicitor wrote that the underwriting was a “critical point of agreement has informed all other aspects of the agreement”, and asked that RTÉ sign off on a draft letter detailing the underwriting agreement which it had sent in March.
