New RTÉ DG Kevin Bakhurst ‘off to a good start’ - Taoiseach

Leo Varadkar says it is important to remember ‘whatever irregularities occurred in RTÉ, the vast majority of the staff had nothing to do with it’

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar: “Notwithstanding the recent controversy, the licence fee pays for our news, pays for arts broadcasting, sports, children’s, Irish-language broadcasting – things that are of real value and I would encourage people to continue to pay their licence fee.” Picture: John Allen
