Written answers
Appointments for State Board positions, including those State Boards under the aegis of the Department of Social Protection, are managed directly by the State Boards Section at the Public Appointments Service (PAS).
Each individual State Board under the aegis of the Department of Social Protection will necessitate particular requirements in terms of knowledge, skills and experience of its members. Any individual can apply for a position on these State Boards, subject to these requirements and other specific criteria as defined by the PAS and the Minister of Social Protection.
Any further queries on the State Boards appointment system should be addressed directly to the PAS.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
