Only half of people surveyed believe RTÉ is serious about transforming

RTÉ director general Kevin Bakhurst said the results show RTÉ has 'a compelling mandate' that will 'make the best use of the monies available to fund our national media service'.
 

Just 50% of people believe that RTÉ is serious about transforming into a better-run organisation, a national survey has found.

The survey, carried out for RTÉ iby Ipsos B&A as part of a broader public consultation on the future of the broadcaster, found that 13% of 1,000 people strongly agreed that RTÉ is serious about transforming, with a further 37% agreeing.
