Mr. Paul O?Toole:

The circular said that anybody who was already in receipt of a public sector salary and who was on the board of an organisation should not receive a fee for their participation on the board. That was the thrust of the circular. In 2012 we had one board member at the time who was still under his warrant of appointment. The circular said that the arrangement should be put in place as soon as was practicable. The board member in question received a board fee in 2012, under his then warrant of appointment, but did not receive a fee in 2013.
