109. Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Minister for Finance the names of persons he has appointed to each State board under the aegis of his Department who have not come from the Public Appointments Service list of suitable candidates, in tabular form. [49998/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraFollowing a review of the work of the Credit Union Restructuring Board's (ReBo) work, as required under the Credit Union and Co-operation with Overseas Regulators Act 2012, which demonstrated that it has completed the performance of its restructuring functions, ReBo is in the process of being dissolved.
ReBo’s restructuring activity ceased on 31 March 2017 and its operations were wound down on 31 July 2017. The board, with the exception of a Central Bank nominee, resigned on 31 July 2017.
While the legislation to wind down ReBo is being drafted, I have appointed two Departmental Officials, Brian Corr and Deirdre Aherne, to the Board of ReBo from 1 August 2017 on an interim basis to manage matters during the period up to the wind down. I have appointed Mr Corr as Chair. Both of these appointments were made outside of the Public Appointments Service process.
