The range of total remuneration recommended by the Review Body on Higher Remuneration in the Public Sector in its 1976 reassessment of the post of chief executive of NET was £12,615—14,198 (expressed in 1977 terms). The salary being paid by the board is in excess of the recommended maximum and the matter is under consideration in consultation with the Minister for the Public Service. |
The chief executive is chairman of one State board and a member of two others. He is in receipt of a director's fee for one having been in receipt of this fee prior to the adoption in 1974 of the concept of “one man one salary”. |
