I propose to take Questions Nos. 404 and 405 together.
I have interpreted the Deputy’s question to mean Irish non-statutory bodies, either fully or partially funded by my Department.
Name of fully funded non-Statutory Body
|
National Employment Rights Authority Advisory Board
|
The National Competitiveness Council
The National Competitiveness Council (NCC) is a non-statutory body which reports to the Government on key competitiveness issues facing the Irish economy. Costs associated with the NCC are met by Forfás, which provides the Secretariat to the NCC on a part-time basis. The main costs associated with the NCC are the salary and overhead costs of the Forfás staff in the NCC Secretariat, who are paid by Forfás, a statutory agency.
