Appointments to the Dormant Accounts Board are governed by the requirements set out in the Dormant Accounts Acts 2001-2005. The Acts provide that the Board will consist of a chairperson and 10 ordinary members with the necessary knowledge of, and experience relating to, the purposes for which disbursements are made from the Dormant Accounts Fund.

I am satisfied that the appointments made by me to the Board are in accordance with the provisions of the Dormant Accounts Acts 2001-2005.

The membership of the Board as of today is set out in the following table.
