Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 January 2017
1524. Deputy Marc MacSharry asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the cost breakdown of the board and management of Bus Éireann; the positions and areas of responsibility they fund; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [41080/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy is aware Board fees of State bodies such as Bus Éireann are set by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
With effect from the 1 May 2009 the approved fees for the Chairperson and directors of Bus Éireann are €21,600 per annum for the Chairperson and €12,600 for each other board member. The fees paid in any given year are published in the publicly available Annual Accounts which can be viewed on the company's website. The Annual Accounts also provide details of the CEO's remuneration.
While the publicly available Annual Accounts provide the substantial part of the answer to your question I have also forwarded the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
The referred reply under Standing Order 42A was forwarded to the Deputy.
