Two Advisory Boards are in place within bodies under the aegis of my Department - the Public Appointments Service (PAS) and the National Shared Service Office (NSSO).

Both organisations are independent Scheduled Bodies, funded by voted moneys from the Exchequer - Vote 17 (PAS) and Vote 18 (NSSO).

Details regarding the purpose, function, membership, appointments process and conditions of office for members of the PAS Advisory Board are set out in the Public Service Management (Recruitment and Appointments) Act 2004. Similar details corresponding to the NSSO Advisory Board are set out in the National Shared Services Act 2017.

The membership of both Advisory Boards comprises of civil servants, public servants and individuals who have been appointed from outside of the Civil and Public Service. Details regarding the level of remuneration provided to board members, including chairpersons, is set out in tabular format below. As per the 'One Person One Salary' principle, civil and public servants who sit on these boards do not receive remuneration for doing so.
