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.

Aquaculture Licensing Appeals Board (ALAB) | 7 |
Bord Bia | 15 |
Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM) | 5 |
Bord na gCon | 6 |
Horse Racing Ireland | 14 |
