There are no State Agencies operating under the aegis of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. There are four bodies operating under the aegis of my Department. These are: the Ireland - United States Commission for Educational Exchange (the Fulbright Commission); the Development Education Advisory Committee; the Irish Aid Expert Advisory Group; and the Emigrant Services Advisory Committee. There are no Secretary Generals from Government Departments sitting on these boards.

The Secretary General of my Department does not sit on the board of any government body.
