In response to the Deputy’s question there were no autonomous Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO’s) in existence under the remit of my Department when I became Minister and that continues to be the case today.

In response to the Deputy’s question I can confirm that there is only one chairperson on each of the two Boards under my remit which are the An Post National Lottery Board and the Public Appointments Service Board. Both chairpersons were appointed before I took office and this position remains unchanged. There are no regulators under my remit.
