In answer to the Deputy's question I can provide details in respect of the bodies under the aegis of my Department. It would be a matter for individual departments to supply the information in respect of the bodies under their aegis. The following is the list of Board Appointees to the Public Appointments Service (PAS) and their remuneration received in respect of Board membership.

The Board is meant to be representative of our client base. The majority of the board is therefore civil or public servants, nominated by the relevant Minister. There is also a union representative nominated by ICTU. I reappointed the outgoing Chairman and the two external members were appointed by me because of their expertise in strategic change and public service recruitment respectively.
