The composition of selection committees varies depending on the post to be filled but the selection committee is normally made up of some/all of the following:
➢ Board of management nominees
➢ Principal of the school
➢ Trustee nominees
➢ External Independent assessor
The rates paid to Independent Assessors are at the discretion of the board of management and should be processed through payroll unless the Independent Assessor is self-employed and has provided an invoice or is claiming Travel and Subsistence only.
If the Independent Assessor is claiming a daily fee and travel & subsistence then both amounts are taxable and must be processed through payroll
If the independent Assessor is claiming travel & subsistence only then this should be paid within civil service mileage rates and can be paid tax free.
