MembersThe council has listed seven members, of whom four constitute a quorum:[2]
The secretary of the council is a civil servant in the Department of Justice and Equality.[4] HistoryComhairle na Míre Gaile was established by the Deeds of Bravery Act, 1947.[2] The concept was introduced on a non-statutory basis in June 1945, when a committee was formed with the same members who would later form Comhairle na Míre Gaile. A supplementary estimate of £250 was authorised for the Minister of Justice to fund the scheme's inaugural year, including the travel expenses of honorees to Áras an Uachtaráin to receive their awards from the President.[5] James Dillon proposed that the Council of State should be the competent body rather than a new committee.[5]Originally the President was to present the highest award, the Gold Medal; other awards were presented by the local district court judge, or the mayor if the deed was in a city or borough.[6] In recent years, all awards are presented in an annual ceremony by the Ceann Comhairle.[7] The first Gold Medal was presented in 1956. Nine more were presented between 1992 and 2010.[8] AwardsActs of bravery are eligible for recognition if committed in Ireland or on an Irish-registered ship.[2] Defence Forces personnel are not eligible for acts performed while on active service; however the Defence Forces have their own medals and awards, beginning with the medal issued to participants in the Easter Rising in 1941, on its 25th anniversary. Gardaí are eligible for Comhairle awards,[15] although the Scott Medal is the Garda Síochána's own highest award for valour.[9] The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) reached an agreement with the state in 1948 whereby Comhairle na Míre Gaile would not make awards to RNLI personnel and the RNLI would not make awards to others for deeds which had already been recognised by Comhairle na Míre Gaile.[10] The medal may be awarded in gold, silver or bronze, with ribbons respectively coloured green, red, or blue, in each case with two white stripes.[11] The medal was designed by Richard King after an open competition.[12] From 1945 to September 2010, the council awarded 10 gold, 68 silver, and 261 bronze medals; 1,468 certificates; and nine letters of commendation.[13] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.focal.ie/Search.aspx?term=Comhairle+na+M%C3%ADre+Gaile|title=Comhairle na Míre Gaile|work=Focal|accessdate=13 December 2013}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 Deeds of Bravery Act, 1947 Irish Statute Book 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.councillors.ie/History.html|title=History|publisher=Association of County and City Councils|accessdate=10 January 2011}} 4. ^{{cite book|url=http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/JELR/NamesandAddressesGlossary.pdf/Files/NamesandAddressesGlossary.pdf#page=4|title=A glossary of terms relating to the Department of Justice and Law Reform|chapter=Offices / Agencies associated with the Department|publisher=Government of Ireland|page=4|accessdate=22 December 2010}} 5. ^1 Committee on Finance. – Vote 32—Office of the Minister for Justice Dáil debates Vol.97 cc.1716–29, 27 June 1945 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://opac.oireachtas.ie/AWData/Library3/Library2/DL052457.pdf#page=3 |title=First annual report; for the year ended 31st December, 1947 |author=Comhairle na Míre Gaile |date=26 May 1948|publisher=Stationery Office|page=2|location=Dublin |series=Official publications |volume=P.8768 |format=PDF |accessdate=13 December 2013}} 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.bravery.ie/en/bravery/Pages/PreviousCeremonies|title=Previous Ceremonies|publisher=National Bravery Awards|accessdate=13 December 2013}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bravery.ie/en/bravery/Pages/WP12000010|title=Gold Medal Recipients|publisher=National Bravery Awards|accessdate=13 December 2013}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.garda.ie/Controller.aspx?Page=71&Lang=1 |title=The Scott Medal |publisher=Garda Síochána |accessdate=15 December 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131215213338/http://www.garda.ie/Controller.aspx?Page=71&Lang=1 |archivedate=15 December 2013 |df= }} 10. ^{{cite book|title=Dáil Éireann debates |url=http://debates.oireachtas.ie/dail/1965/02/16/00027.asp|volume=214 |date=16 February 1965|publisher=Oireachtas|at=cc.376–7 |chapter=Questions.
