The Mining Board consists of a Chairman and two ordinary members. The Secretary to the board is not a full time position and is resourced from Department funds.

The current fees payable to the Chairman are as follows:

Fees per day for public and private sittings€582.97
Fees per full day for any necessary attendance (other than sittings) in discharge of the Board's business€200.93

There are no fees payable to the members of the Board. As the Board meets only when required to do so funding is provided as required.
