My Department will shortly be inviting expressions of interest on its website in relation to future appointments to State boards at which stage those being considered for appointment as Chairpersons will be required to make themselves available to the appropriate Oireachtas Committee. Where fees are approved, there are four categories payable to chairpersons and directors of Non-Commercial State Agencies subject to the "one person one salary" principle which provides that as a general rule public servants acting as chairpersons or directors of state-sponsored bodies do not receive additional remuneration for undertaking such duties. Members of the Boards would be entitled to claim travel and subsistence in the normal way. With effect from 1st January 2010 the annual rates in respect of those Boards to which I have made appointments are:

No fees are approved in respect of the National Haemophilia Council and the National Cancer Registry Board. Instead of the fees mentioned above, members of the Hepatitis C and HIV Compensation Tribunal are paid a briefing fee of €17,526 when they take up their appointment and a daily rate of €992.68.
