In 2018, a man wrote down the abuse, the bullying and the cover-up that he alleges he endured at RTÉ when he was working there in the 1990s. He sent the information to Dee Forbes and he did not receive a response. He sent it to Moya Doherty, the then chair of the board, and did not receive a response. He also sent it to a HR executive board member and received a very unsatisfactory response. At the time, RTÉ was saying "The Truth Matters" and it was in vogue for the organisation to say it was going to give justice to people and listen to their stories. It certainly did not happen in this case. Will the Taoiseach ensure, with the process that has been announced by the Government, that people like this man will have their stories listened to, will receive justice and will be taken seriously, so that they can get some closure in relation to very traumatic experiences?

I thank Deputy Griffin for raising this important issue and for the very effective work he has been doing on the joint committee recently in relation to this matter. I am sure all of us are now receiving correspondence from former staff members of RTÉ or people who had interactions with RTÉ in the past. As is always the case with matters such as this, when people are making allegations, some will be true and can be proven, some will be true and cannot be proven, and some will not be true. That is why it is important that, first of all, we take any allegations seriously, but secondly, we do not jump to judgment. I think we will need to have a system or a process put in place to look at these allegations again, and fairly and in good faith. I am going to speak to the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Deputy Catherine Martin, about that. It can be done either through the Office of the Protected Disclosures Commissioner or perhaps a different mechanism. We have done it before with respect to other bodies. We will need to do it here too.
