An internal health and safety review into a retirement gathering at RTÉ has found five breaches in relation to Covid 19 advice, protocols and regulations.
Director General Dee Forbes has said the breaches should not have happened and apologised in a letter circulated to staff this afternoon.
The review found that there was a breach of a requirement under Level 5 restrictions to avoid crowded places and three breaches of public health advice at the event on 12 November.
These include some people not maintaining social distancing and, where the two-metre rule was breached, it found some people were not wearing face coverings.
