Media Minister Catherine Martin has indicated that the State will pay for an external review of RTÉ rather than sending the bill to the national broadcaster.
This is despite the fact that RTÉ under-declared star Ryan Tubridy’s pay for the last five years by €345,000.
The Green Party deputy leader also said that it is up to RTÉ if they want to reveal the salary of the new Late Late Show presenter Patrick Kielty.
