Minister for Education and Skills

As Minister, neither I nor my Department hold shares in the entities under the Department's aegis, namely the non-commercial state agencies. While most of these agencies have a legislative underpinning, two (Skillnet Ireland and Léargas - The Exchange Bureau) are companies limited by guarantee, with no shareholders.
