Oireachtas committee told in letter that former head of RTÉ remains under ‘active medical care’
Former director general of RTÉ Dee Forbes is “not fit or able” to respond to any questions from politicians on her role in several controversies at the broadcaster, according to correspondence from her lawyers to the Oireachtas media committee.
In a fresh letter to the Oireachtas media committee, lawyers for Ms Forbes said she was “unfit to be involved in any process”. The March 8th letter was sent in response to correspondence from the committee last month, where it said it could facilitate “reasonable supports” to assist the former head of RTÉ providing information.
The letter, from Byrne Wallace law firm, stated the committee had previously been provided with information about Ms Forbes’s medical state.
