I propose to take Questions Nos. 308 and 309 together.

I understand from Student Universal Support Ireland that the student referred to by the Deputy has been contacted by phone and a letter informing the student of the outcome of his appeal is being issued.

For the Deputy's information, attached is a list of the agencies under the aegis of my Department.

There are currently no vacancies. With the planned establishment of Seirbhísí Oideachais Leanúnaigh agus Scileanna (SOLAS) in the autumn, the incoming chairperson and board of SOLAS are currently the subject of the appointments process. It is anticipated that these positions will be filled in the coming weeks.

Details of all Members of Boards under the aegis of my Department, the date of their appointment and the date their appointment ceases are available on my Department's website - http://www.education.ie/en/The-Department/Agencies/Details-of-Membership-of-State-Boards/. No appointments are due to cease in the next six months.
