Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

Over the past five years there have been no members or former members of the judiciary who have acted as chairperson or member of any body under the aegis of my Department or have performed functions including arbitration, mediation, conciliation, patronage, advisory or law reform functions or any other role for my Department.  

My Department has no information on whether members or former members of the judiciary performed any functions or role in any of the agencies under the remit of my Department.  I have forwarded your request to all such agencies for direct reply to you. If you do not receive an answer back within ten working days please contact my private office.
