There are two Ministers of State attached to my Department. Deputy Fahey is Minister of State with responsibility for equality matters, particularly disability, and Deputy Brian Lenihan is Minister of State with special responsibility for children, a role which overlaps three Departments, the Department of Health and Children, the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform and the Department of Education and Science.

After the recent Government reshuffle the then Minister of State information was taken off my Department's website for updating. The respective details of both Ministers for State are now available on my Department's website.
