173 Ms Fitzgerald asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will give details of the boards under the aegis of his Department; and the current membership and the number of women on each of these boards. [20474/97]
There are seven State bodies under the aegis of my Department. The composition and membership details are set out in the following tabular statement.
A significant number of appointments arise from names put forward by organisations with a right to nominate under the relevant legislation. These nominating bodies are made aware of the Government's gender balance policy. The appointments to the National Milk Agency are entirely on the basis of names from specified nominating organisations. Producer members to that agency are appointed through an election.
