There are four statutory bodies operating under the aegis of my Department: the Citizens Information Board, the Pensions Authority, the Pensions Council and the Social Welfare Tribunal. The table below sets out the number of members on each board. Please note that Board members are not required to declare a disability and hence the information requested on the representation of people with disabilities on each board is not available.

Name of Board Current number of members on Board
Citizens Information Board 12
Pensions Authority 3
Pensions Council 9
Social Welfare Tribunal 5
