I strongly support my colleague, Senator Ó Domhnaill, in his remarks about "The Frontline" programme and the report on RTE. Any reasonable person would have to agree that programme and the warped way in which it was conducted changed the entire course of the presidential election and, more than likely, the outcome as well.

Good.

In fairness to the incumbent, President Higgins, more luck to him and he is above reproach. However, there is a man who it appeared likely was going to be President who probably will feel very sore every time he reads these reports.

We are not discussing the presidential election.

Clearly RTE has serious questions to answer at the very top.

Not just RTE.

Not just RTE but I am mindful of the way in which a BBC inquiry has taken place and the level at which heads are rolling over there. We need to see a few more heads rolling in RTE and that needs to happen pretty swiftly.

There has been reference to fascism around the House. Hitler was mentioned and Mussolini was more or less mentioned.

Charlie Haughey, you mean.

The term was coined by Mussolini.

That was his term.

Does the Deputy have a question for the Leader?
