- The infamous RTÉ barter account had another €650,000 sloshing around in it that nobody knew about.
A probe into RTÉ found the barter account slush fund - which came to light in the Ryan Tubridy payments scandal - had six-figure sums that were never included in the broadcaster’s annual report.
A new report will now recommend a cap on golden handshakes, which must be approved by the board, at the national broadcaster.
The batch of inquiries also recommend a civil service-style pay scale system for RTÉ, with a range of payments for staff at particular job levels.
The report details a total of €654,000 spent from the barter account, which was not in the annual accounts, including €186,000 in 2018 and €233,000 in 2019.
The existence of the barter account first came to light as it featured in the undisclosed payment to Tubridy and then further revelations about the purchase of flip-flops for a party and lavish corporate hospitality being paid for out of the fund.

Where was RTE media at the peaceful protest 6/5/24 showing the lrish people standing together shame on them
GBNews great Reporting by (Dougie) giving an honest coverage of the day sage said no right wing people here just lrish people wanting to make a change
Check this out
RTE wasn’t there for the same reason that NONE of the Irish broadcast media weren’t there. They don’t work for us, they work for the Irish political class. Bought and paid for.
GBNews gave an honest and accurate account of the feelings of the Irish People and the Peaceful Protest. Isn't it funny one man from across the pond can make a real assessment of the Irish Peoples concerns and yet our so called representatives go def and blind towards its own citizens all while taking our hard earned tax and living the great life on overpaid wages. Dougie has been doing a brilliant job for a long while now reporting on the situation in Ireland. 👍👍☘☘☘☘☘
Transparency at RTE hahaha.. they can sing for it , not a penny
Patriots in there thousands marched yesterday, wonderful sight, Godspeed Irish Patriots, rte and msm going down😂
What a proud day for Ireland yesterday. Fantastic peaceful protest, what a crowd 😊
Me bollox will I be paying for a tv license lol
Absolute shite tv paying for that
I use to hate Bono for not paying tax in this country, but looking around the country i wouldn't fuckin blame him.. we are spending millions now on taking over Ukrainians pets, hospitals are a joke, homelessness don't even get me started on that, illegal immigrants, countrys people immigranting for a better life, no houses to rent and cant afford it and definitely cant build , sovereignty sold to the Eu,nato,who and anyone with there fuckin hand out.. sad times.. my son is five and he will never know the Ireland 🇮🇪 tht we grew up in. It breaks my heart to see are beautiful country been treated like a dumping ground.. we need to rise up and take to the streets, like we did with the water rates . 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Bono and his wife are left,they like to call them selves activests,he even went to Davos WEF a few year's ago....he's all for open borders and part of Klaus Schwab's elite club
Fair play
Funny the " Irish independent " is neither Irish nor independent .
It was just resting in there accounts
The drunk TV licence inspector visited our house last week, then another one in two days ... desperate for a money 🤦
Any jobs going?
Yosser Hughes died.
As the governments propaganda wing these perks are allowed
Just sell RTE. The others are well able to do narrative. It's outdated and not fit for purpose. It would be a kindness to put it out of its misery. And the long suffering public would save a few quid to put towards broadband.
Absolute joke whats going on and government knows all about it
Make sure you pay your tv licence 😂 🖕
