The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following tables.

Table 1 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Commercial State Bodies who are on a Hay contract.

Table 2 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Commercial State Bodies who are not on Hay contracts.

Table 3 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Non Commercial Bodies.

The duration of the appointments vary from contract to contract depending on the individual contractual provisions. References to a 3 plus 4 year contract generally means that the initial appointment is for a 3 year period and, where the Board is satisfied with the performance of the Chief Executive, can be extended for a further 4 year term. Annual rolling contracts generally provide that the contract rolls over on an annual basis and can be terminated with a year's notice by the Company.
