RTÉ Chair Resigns Amid Conflicting Claims Over Former Executive's Exit Package
• Former RTÉ chair Síun Ní Raghallaigh claims she informed the Department of Media about the exit package for former RTÉ executive Richard Collins in October 2022.
• Ní Raghallaigh resigned as RTÉ chair after Minister Catherine Martin accused her on TV of failing to disclose details of the exit package.
• The Labour Party has called on Minister Martin to resign over her handling of the situation.
• Martin thanked Ní Raghallaigh for her service but said she was "deeply disappointed" at being given misinformation about board involvement in exit packages.
• Justice Minister Helen McEntee defended Martin's TV appearance, saying she "did not dismiss" Ní Raghallaigh and acknowledged her work at RTÉ.
