The Irish Red Cross Society is an autonomous body, established in accordance with the Red Cross Act, 1938, with full powers to manage and administer its affairs through its governing body, the Central Council. The terms and conditions of service of employees are matters for the Society itself. The Minster for Defence has no function in the administration of the Irish Red Cross and does not get involved in the day to day running of its affairs.
