There are 20 bodies under the aegis of my Department all of which  are subject to the 2016 Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies.

Chairpersons and Boards of all State bodies are required to implement Government policy in relation to the total remuneration package of the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs)/Managing Directors of State bodies.  Chairpersons and Boards of State bodies are also required to implement any relevant Government policy with regard to the remuneration of the Board and all other staff. The Code also sets out the business and financial reporting requirements to be observed by State bodies including personnel compensation.

I trust that the above of assistance to the Deputy.  If the Deputy has a specific query in relation to any of the bodies under the aegis of my Department my officials will be happy to assist.
