In the agencies for which I have responsibility there have been no persons appointed to the post equivalent to Chief Executive Officer, or de facto Accounting Officer to such an office, who was within 12 months of that appointment a member of the board of that organisation since 1 January 2009. The Chief Executive Officers of the State agencies for which I have responsibility are appointed by the Board of the relevant organisations. Chief Executive Officer and Board membership details are available from the Annual Report and Accounts of the relevant agency. In addition, full details of State Board appointments are available on my Department's website.
