Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 June 2016
227. Deputy James Lawless asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the number of vacancies on the boards of the Arts Council and national cultural institutions; when she will fill them; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [14159/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe information sought by the Deputy is provided in the following table. I would point out that the National Archives of Ireland has an Advisory Council rather than a Board.
The Public Appointments Service operates a dedicated website, www.stateboards.ie, through which it advertises vacancies on State Boards. Arrangements are currently in train in cooperation with the Public Appointments Service to fill all of the vacancies listed. There are no vacancies on the boards of the other National Cultural Institutions.
