Minister for the Marine and Natural Resources (Dr. Woods)

I have not appointed a programme manager. I have appointed a special adviser, and refer the Deputy to replies to Question No. 124 on 30 September and Question No. 68 on 1 October 1997 in relation to the salary.

The terms of the relevant contract are not as yet finalised.
