Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 October 2015
290. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if the appointment of a member to the Top Level Appointments Committee who simultaneously holds the post of chair of the Revenue Commissioners is in line with procedures and practices for such appointments. [36244/15]
View answerThe membership of the Top Level Appointments Committee (TLAC) is appointed by the Taoiseach. The Taoiseach in making such appointments consults with me in my role as Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.
The person holding the position referred to in the Deputy's question is not a member of TLAC but there is no impediment to a person holding that position being considered for appointment to TLAC in circumstances that a vacancy arose.
