The recruitment of a new CEO for the Authority is going ahead under the auspices of a public competition being organised by the Public Appointments Service. I am advised that there is a very considerable level of interest in the post and therefore it could be some time yet before a candidate is selected for appointment, by the Equality Authority, under the normal statutory procedures.
