The previous question referred to is No. 196 of 22 November 2007. In response, I indicated that ten state bodies and boards under the aegis of my Department were established in the period since 1997 and that one of the bodies concerned evolved from the restructuring of an existing body.
I refer to the reply to Question no. 364 of 19 October 2007 which provided information regarding the annual budget of the state bodies and boards under the aegis of my Department. The information is also set out in the table in respect of the ten bodies and boards concerned. The annual overheads element of the budget is not available in my Department as day to day operational matters are entirely a matter for the body or board concerned.
