Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 September 2010
870 Deputy Leo Varadkar asked the Minister for Transport in respect of semi-State companies within the aegis of his Department, when the current CEO or equivalent was appointed to their position; the length of their current contract; and the date it is due for renewal. [33129/10]
View answerThe information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following tables.
Table 1 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Commercial State Bodies who are on a Hay contract.
Table 2 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Commercial State Bodies who are not on Hay contracts.
Table 3 contains information relating to Chief Executives of Non Commercial Bodies.
The duration of the appointments vary from contract to contract depending on the individual contractual provisions. References to a 3 plus 4 year contract generally means that the initial appointment is for a 3 year period and, where the Board is satisfied with the performance of the Chief Executive, can be extended for a further 4 year term. Annual rolling contracts generally provide that the contract rolls over on an annual basis and can be terminated with a year's notice by the Company.
