Comment on this
The National Pensions Board were set up in early 1986 to advise me on all aspects of occupational pension schemes. The board will also be advising me on the most suitable approach to a national pension policy.
The board is comprised of representatives of the various interest groups involved, workers, employers, selfemployed and the pensions industry, together with representatives of four Government Departments. The total number of members — excluding civil servants — is 16, none of whom has a current address outside the State. Of the 16, there are 14 who reside in Dublin, one who resides in Meath and one in Tipperary.
