RTÉ unions have 'huge concerns' about broadcaster’s five-year strategy

As part of the new strategy, RTÉ has said it aims to cut staffing numbers by 20%.
RTÉ unions have written to the Oireachtas Media Committee to express their concern at the broadcaster’s new five-year strategy, saying its philosophy is “not consistent with the values of public service broadcasting”.
The RTÉ Trade Union Group held a meeting on Tuesday in the Late Late Show studio in Montrose and heard how staff have deep concerns about the future of the broadcaster as outlined in the New Direction strategy announced last week.
