Written Answers - Departmental Appointments.
My Department does not hold personal information in relation to the health status of members of State boards. In making appointments to State boards under the aegis of my Department, every effort is made to ensure appropriate representation for all relevant stakeholders. Appointments are made based on the knowledge, skills and experience that the particular individuals can bring to the performance of their roles and functions as board members.
