The two statutory bodies operating under the aegis of this Department which have Chief Executive Officers are the Citizens Information Board and the Pensions Board. Of these, the only retirement which occurred within the last four years was the CEO of the Citizens Information Board. The Citizens Information Board has advised me that their former CEO received a lump sum pension payment of €185,370.50 on her retirement in 2008. The current annual cost of the pension is €51,518.95.
