I wish to advise the Deputy that the information requested is set out in the attached table.

The Deputy should be aware that, with the exception of the Boards' positions reserved for representatives of specific stakeholders or officials from this Department, these are all filled through the Public Appointments Service (PAS)/State Boards process. In the case of officials serving as Board members, no remuneration is paid in respect of that work.
