The Citizens Information Board (CIB), is a statutory independent body as set out in the Comhairle Act 2000 which operates under the aegis of my Department. CIB provides funding and support to the Citizen Information Services (CIS) network comprising of eight regional CIS companies. Each of these companies is overseen and governed by a Board of Directors.

As CIB are directly responsible for all operational matters including Human Resource issues concerning the Citizen Information Service Companies, I have asked CIB to respond to you directly in relation to this matter.
