I propose to take Questions Nos. 84 and 85 together.
I assume the Deputy is concerned with appointments to State Boards that come under the aegis of my Department. Since the 22nd, November 2010 to date I have made 6 appointments to Boards which are contained in the tabular statement below. They are new appointments with the exception of Mr. Scott at Tipperary Rural & Business Development Institute (T.R.B.D.I.) who is a re-appointment. The appointees listed do not receive any remuneration for carrying out their functions. They are entitled to claim travel and subsistence expenses that arise in carrying out their duties.
I am aware that eight vacancies will arise on the National Qualification Authority on the 25th, February 2011. There are also eight vacancies on the Higher Education Authority and fifteen on the Irish Research Council for Science, Engineering & Technology.
I have requested officials at my Department to compile a full list of vacancies on bodies under the aegis of my Department and I will forward it to the Deputy when it is available.
