Written answers

Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform

The Guidelines on Appointments to State Boards was published by my Department in November 2014 and, subject to specific arrangements which apply to NewEra companies, these guidelines apply to all State Boards both commercial and non-commercial.

The guidelines build on earlier work by contributing to greater openness and transparency in the selection of appointees to State Boards.

These guidelines are available online at www.stateboards.ie and a copy is attached.
