Department officials have checked records relating to board appointments of former TD’s since the Public Appointments Service (PAS) process for board appointments came on stream in 2011.
I am advised that one former TD, Mr Brian Fleming was appointed to the Board of the State Examinations Commission through the PAS process. Mr Fleming’s term of office as a Commissioner was from April 2012 to April 2015.
In regard to the State Bodies under the aegis of my Department one further former TD served between the period 2013 to 2017 Mr Austin Currie served on the Board of Caranua from 2013 to March 2017), however the PAS process was not utilised for this appointment.
