NEWSMAKER OF THE WEEK

WHILE the news that Etain Doyle was stepping down as chairperson of the Commissionfor Communications Regulation (ComReg) was not much of a shock to the telecommunications sector, the news that she is off to New York to study film reallyknocked the wind out of most.

Not that anyone in the market would doubt Ms Doyle's ability to turn her hand to any newtask - it was more of a case of the most unlikely candidate in the class.

Let's face it, the role of telecoms regulator is not the most glamorous of positions -although Ms Doyle's seven-year tenure hasn't lacked a few dramatic moments over the years that may stand her in good stead.

It may have been the assertive and straight-talking Ms Doyle's refusal to appear before a Dail Committee hearing back in the early days in 1997 that first raised eyebrows.

And her most recent clashes have been with the Department of Communications in aspat over an early pension she is requesting to be paid at the age of 52, instead of theusual 60.
