* Those PRTB / Rent Tribunal members of the Board, who are entitled to Board fees, are paid such fees on an attendance basis only. Details regarding the scale of fees and the amounts paid are published in the annual reports of the PRTB.
** In the case of Irish Water the appointments are executive in nature; details of their salaries are not available in my Department.
*** In the case of the Pyrite Resolution Board those directors who are entitled to fees are paid on an attendance basis.
**** The Boards of An Bord Pleanála and the Environmental Protection Agency are executive in nature, and Board members are full-time, salaried positions.
From 1 May 2009, fees were reduced by 10% in line with the Government decision to revise the fees for non-executive Chairpersons and members of Boards of State Bodies. From 1 January 2010, fees were further reduced in line with the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (No. 2) Act 2009.
Reference to remuneration for chairs and members of Boards is to the level of fee to which they are entitled. Where public servants are appointed to Boards, no fees are payable.
Details in relation to the fees paid to individual Board members are also available within the respective annual reports of the individual agencies.
