There are eight State agencies financed by the Exchequer under the aegis of my Department. The following table sets out the agencies and the number of board members in each case.

Total Number of Board Members
Aquaculture Licensing Appeals Board (ALAB)7
Bord Bia15
Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM)5
Bord na gCon6
Horse Racing Ireland14
Marine Institute8
Sea Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA)3

Queries regarding expenses issued to Board members for attendance at meetings should be addressed to the State agencies themselves.
