Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 November 2017
511. Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment the names of persons he has appointed to each State board under the aegis of his Department who have not come from the Public Appointments Service list of suitable candidates, in tabular form. [49993/17]
View answerAppointments to State boards under the aegis of my Department include Ministerial appointments, reappointments, appointments of Elected Employee Representatives and appointments of ex-officio directors (CEOs). All appointments made by me since taking office have been made in accordance with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform Guidelines on Appointments to State Boards. Where a list of candidates has been presented to me by the Public Appointments Service, I have always selected candidates for appointment from that list.
