I propose to take Questions Nos. 254 and 264 together.
There are currently two vacancies on State Boards that come within my Department's remit, both of which exist on the Board of IAASA. In this regard, there is one position for a Chairperson, for which a shortlist was submitted by the Public Appointments Service (PAS) to me. The selected candidate is now to meet with the Joint Oireachtas Committee for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, prior to the formal conclusion of the appointment. The second vacancy, a Ministerial nominee, will be filled following public advertisement and recruitment process conducted by PAS.
The following positions have been filled on the State Boards under my Department’s remit since I took up office on the 8th May 2016:
