RTÉ director of legal affairs and group secretary Paula Mullooly and RTÉ director general Kevin Bakhurst arrive at Leinster House in Dublin to appear before the Public Accounts Committee. “If we didn’t get this cash, we would run out of cash, that’s for sure,” Mr Bakhurst told the committee. RTÉ director general Kevin Bakhurst was questioned about the broadcaster’s finances. Appearing before the committee, Mr Bakhurst was asked whether RTE had sought Mr Collins’ resignation and whether he had received a severance package. Mr Bakhurst said there were no plans for compulsory redundancies and said, if there were, that would require political approval.
