RTE’s Ryan Tubridy and his agent Noel Kelly are set be questioned by TDs at next Tuesday’s Public Accounts (PAC) meeting.
Further revelations are expected to be revealed when RTE’s highest-paid star answers questions on his salary and bonus paymnets.
The date was agreed in private session by the Dáil’s public spending watchdog this morning.
They will appear before the PAC next Tuesday at 11am.
RTÉ officials will be invited to appear before the committee next Thursday.
This is likely to make for three Oireachtas question sessions with RTÉ figures next week – Mr Kelly and Mr Tubridy at the PAC on Tuesday and the Media Committee on Wednesday and then RTÉ executives at the PAC on Thursday.
Formal invites from the PAC to the stars and bosses will be issued shortly.
