I have appointed a special adviser, Mr. Christopher Mannion; a policy adviser, Ms Deirdre Gillane; a press adviser, Ms Caitríona Meehan; two personal assistants, Ms Melanie Hewitt and Ms Ann Donnelly; and a personal secretary, Ms Elizabeth O'Donoghue.

He has appointed a personal assistant, Mr. Pat Daly; a personal secretary, Ms Suzanne Roche; and two civilian drivers, Mr. Thomas Kierce and Mr. Tom Keating.
