I move amendment No. 16:

In page 12, line 20, to delete "by the Minister" and substitute "by the Board with the approval of the Minister given".

The Bill provides that the terms and conditions of the CEO are determined by the Minister with the consent of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. The board does not have a role. However, given that the CEO is appointed by the board and the board will be managing the CEO's performance, the Minister has given this further consideration and proposes that the board should determine terms and conditions for the CEO. The board will need the approval of the Minister given with the consent of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform. This is the process in many other Acts.
