Details in relation to NESDO comprise staff serving in all its constituent bodies, i.e.the National Economic and Social Council (NESC), the National Economic and Social Forum (NESF) and the National Centre for Partnership and Performance (NCPP).
All staff in my Department and the National Economic & Social Development Office are based in Dublin. The Central Statistics Office has staff in both Dublin and Cork. Details are provided in the table below.
