Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 February 2012
260 Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Education and Skills if he will provide in tabular form the annual allowance and expenses each vocational education committee chief executive receives for VEC board membership. [9834/12]
View answerChief Executive Officers (CEOs) of Vocational Education Committees (VECs) are paid directly by the Committees which employ them. The Deputy should note that the CEO is not a member of the VEC.
Apart from basic salary, CEOs may qualify for payment of allowances in respect of the discharge of the role of Transport Liaison Officer and/or as Secretary to a Board of Management of a Comprehensive School.
CEOs do not receive expenses for attendance at VEC meetings. However, travel and subsistence is payable in accordance with public sector norms to CEOs for their attendance at meetings away from the VEC's headquarters and where the attendance of the CEO is necessary for the discharge of their role.
The table sets out the allowances paid in 2011 in respect of each CEO in addition to the amount paid in respect of travel and subsistence to each CEO for the same year:
