Siún Ní Raghallaig sensationally quitting as the Chair of the RTE Board overnight

Deputy Smyth believes that the future funding of RTÉ can only be decided through a prism of full disclosure of all financial transactions.

Director General Kevin Bakhurst and chair of the board Siún Ní Raghallaigh have been summoned to a meeting with Media Minister Catherine Martin today.

Cavan-Monaghan TD Niamh Smyth says many of those behind the Musical have questions to answer.

This provides RTE with an opportunity to demonstrate to the public how things have changed.

'The committee will discuss the second Grant Thornton report into governance issues at the broadcaster'

The meeting will take place later today.
