Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

Ok thanks. So basically the reason given for the extra payments was a contract between rte and tubbs agent that Renault would not have known about, that only appeared recently and not even signed by RTE??
Fair is fair , Ryan did a days work today and we have to give him that
I've skipped some pages, did I miss anything?
Think she is always done up and she is sweetness and light 😊
Rail starting to wag the dog again
Haha moving on
No Ryan ..we dont want to hear your monologue
RT trying to waste time by reading the statements again!!!
LOL no-one wants to hear their statements again.
Phew! I thought we were going to have to listen to that 30 minute spiel from the 2 lads again
I hope Mattie spoke during the break
Thats extremely poor. They should be allowed to make their statements. Regardless of whether its simply repeating what was said this morning, it should be marked within this committees minutes.
And it was.. she said they'd be read into the record or similar.
And the host’s agent is under question by said committee.
Stop projecting. He offered to do it - he could have insisted.
I'm happy to waste 15mins time and Noel is happy to waste an additional 15mins so we can cut down on the time allocated for questions, and I just want to say how much I admire all of your work as Senators, in fact, I think I'd like to say how amazeballs you all are and I've often commented to my friends that you're my absolute favourite Oireachtas committee......
Alan Dillon on this committee too. Hopefully he gets more time
Allan Dillon was clearly a scientist in a previous life as evident by the surgical precision of his questions.
Contrast the sharpness of the questions with the answers.
Allan Dillon to NK: Do you blame RTE for all of this:
NK: Yes
Allan Dillon to RT: Who do you blame for concealing the payments?
RT: I believe the person on my left.
I think we should consider this hearing an intelligence test for the Irish populace. Those who believe that RT and NK were honest players in all this would have failed that test.
We’re only a tiny wee innocent company
Mr Tubrity back looking very refreshed. Whatever he did during that time it works a charm
He keeps repeating the instructed defence.
This is not a defence. He took part in a bogus invoice scheme. Instruction is irrelevant. Why aren't the gardai involved?
Good start from O'Sullivan.
Anyone know who the legal man behind them is? He's good in fairness
Broadcaster extraordinaire
Is anyones else tv reception bad?
NK hiding behind the Crisis Comm lines.
Tubridy's answers are completely predictable at this stage - deny everything.
Contractors are consultants , silly question
NK: we're the real victims here
