The Board of the Public Appointments Service (PAS) is the only State Board under the aegis of my Department. PAS took on an enhanced role in relation to State Boards following a Government decision in September 2014 and new Guidelines on Appointments to State Boards have been in operation since November 2014.

I am informed by the PAS that no former TDs have been appointed to the PAS Board.
