Selling the entire Montrose campus is one of the options “on the table” as RTÉ bosses seek to secure its financial future, Director General Kevin Bakhurst has said.

RTÉ executives need to make “hard decisions” to create a fit-for-purpose public service broadcaster, Siún Ní Raghallaigh, chair of the RTÉ Board, has told the Oireachtas media committee.

Following a near two-month absence, RTÉ staff and board members again face questions at the Oireachtas media committee today.
