The Gate Theatre in Dublin is asking employees and contractors affected by sexual harassment and abuse of power to contact them.

Management say they are to appoint an independent HR advisor to handle any issues raised.

In a statement, it says it joins other theatrical institutions "to condemn the issue of sexual harassment and abuse of power in the theatre world in Ireland and internationally."
