Statement by Kevin Bakhurst, Director-General of RT: Sin N Raghallaigh

In a note to the staff of RT this morning, Director-General, Kevin Bakhurst, said:

It is with deep regret that I share with you the announcement by Si n N Raghallaigh of her decision to resign as the Chair of the Board of RT tonight. Her statement is included below.

Si n has been an excellent Chair and a great support to me throughout an incredibly challenging time for RT .

Without Si n's experience, insight, guidance and optimism, beginning the process of meaningfully transforming RT would have been a bigger challenge. Her integrity, hard work, commitment to public service and her appreciation of the important work you all do in serving audiences, despite many challenges, made her a valuable ally.

Si n believed in RT and its future and she will be sorely missed.

I'd like to reassure you, our partners and our audiences that I and my Interim Leadership Team remain committed to RT and to continuing to drive the necessary change to secure the future of this organisation and transform it into a national public service media organisation we can all be proud of.

Thanks,

Kevin
