RTÉ selling land 'doesn't create sustainability', Government cautions

The Tánaiste Micheál Martin said he is 'not entirely comfortable' with the way RTÉ management engaged with former presenter Ryan Tubridy

Tánaiste Micheál Martin also signalled he was against selling more RTÉ land saying "often selling land is something you regret later".

Government has cautioned against any sale of land at RTÉ with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar saying such a move would have to make sense.

Mr Varadkar also said that the Government wants its own accountants in NewEra to “go through the books” at RTÉ to “make sure any request for financial support actually adds up”.
