I propose to take Questions Nos. 440 and 441 together.

The following table outlines the membership of the board of the Housing Finance Agency and relevant information.

In line with the recommendation of the Review Body on Higher Remuneration in the Public Service, 5 of the 11 directors do not receive a fee, as they are currently employed as public servants.

Where a director performs duties while temporarily away from his/her normal place of work/home, the HFA pays subsistence expenses in accordance with my Department's guidelines.
