Micheal Martin has called on Dee Forbes to appear before Dáil committees this week.
The Tanaiste was reacting to the shock resignation of RTE Director General, Ms Forbes, on Monday ahead of her expected appearance at the Oireachtas Committee on Media on Wednesday followed by the Public Accounts Committee on Thursday, about the Ryan Tubridy secret payments controversy that continues to rumble on.
Mr Martin was asked if he believes she should still turn up in Leinster House this week, as invited, on his way into a foreign affairs ministers’ meeting in Luxembourg.
