Education vacancies: First appointments to educational research board 10 months after it became a statutory agency
The appointment of board members to the ERC was to be “announced imminently”, the Department of Education told the Irish Examiner in response to questions on its status seven weeks ago.
Although established in the 1960s, the ERC based at St Patrick’s College in Dublin has been given a statutory role since last September. However, a board has only now been put in place, 11 weeks after Mr Bruton was told doing so would be necessary in order for a chief executive to be appointed.
