RTÉ Payments Scandal
Staff gifts worth over €100 to become property of RTÉ under new register
Staff at the national broadcaster are now obliged to declare any gift valued between €50 and €100
A new register at RTÉ will require employees and contractors to declare any gifts received above the value of €50.
In a note to staff on Wednesday, Kevin Bakhurst, the RTÉ director general, said that staff are now obliged to complete a form detailing any gift with a realistic valuation of between €50 and €100.
"Any gift with a realistic valuation of over €100 should not be accepted or if it must be accepted, then it is declared and becomes the property of RTÉ," the note said.
