I propose to take Questions Nos. 307 and 308 together. The remuneration of the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of semi state agencies that fall under the aegis of the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation is as set by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. This also applies to fees payable to Board members.

The following State bodies come under the aegis of my Department:

Enterprise Ireland

Forfás

IDA Ireland

Health and Safety Authority

National Standards Authority of Ireland

InterTrade Ireland

Shannon Development

National Consumer Agency

Competition Authority

Personal Injuries Assessment Board

Science Foundation Ireland

Irish Auditing and Accounting Supervisory Authority

County and City Enterprise Boards (CEBs)

Information relating to the remuneration of CEOs and the fees payable to the Board members concerned is already in the public domain and may be obtained from the agencies concerned through their annual reports and websites.
