RTÉ has confirmed that plans for future projects with broadcaster Sean O'Rourke will not proceed.
In a statement, RTÉ said the decision was mutual and reached following a meeting earlier today with Mr O'Rourke.
Mr O'Rourke was among those who attended the Oireachtas Golf Society event in Clifden, Co Galway last week.
In a statement he said that he "spent many years with RTÉ presenting programmes on which public figures were called to account for their actions.
"Now I must call myself to account," he said. "The right course is to set aside our plans for my return to the airwaves."
Mr O'Rourke retired from his role as host of the Today programme on RTÉ Radio 1 in May of this year.
Following the controversy over the golf event in Co Galway last week, Mr O'Rourke tweeted that he "should not have been at the dinner in Clifden".
He said that he did not have a defence, and that he "was invited to play golf and I really didn't consider it beyond that, other than to assume whatever was happening would be acceptable from a public health point of view."
"I very much regret that lack of thought and interrogation on my part, and I apologise unreservedly for it."
Mr O'Rourke began his broadcasting career with RTÉ in the 1980s and has presented Morning Ireland, This Week and News at One, as well as The Week in Politics.
