The information requested by the Deputy is as follows:

Mr Ultan Herr was appointed to the Decentralisation Implementation Group (DIG) on 26 November 2007 for a period of 2 years. Although he continued to serve on the DIG, due to an oversight, the extension of his membership was not formally approved until 17 December 2010 when his membership was extended until the end of 2011 or the completion of the 2011 Review of the Decentralisation Programme, whichever is the sooner. Mr Herr was paid fees of €855 for attendance at meetings in 2010.

Mr Jim Kelly was appointed during the period to the National Assets Management Agency Audit Committee. He is to receive fee of €1,000 per meeting subject to a maximum of €10,000 pa. Mr Kelly was appointed from a list of appropriately qualified persons.
