Details of the State Boards that fall under the remit of my Department, including details on board appointments and vacancies, are available on my Department's website at the following link: https://www.education.ie/en/The-Department/Agencies/.
The information requested by the Deputy in regard to the number of vacant posts on boards is provided in the following table.
As the Deputy will be aware, individuals may be nominated for appointment by various organisations arising from the terms in the relevant legislation regarding the Body concerned and accordingly board appointments made by me are not in all cases made at my discretion.
