The following Table sets out a summary, for the agencies under my remit, of the key project deliverables under the Public Sector (Croke Park) Agreement. The Agreement requires each agency to achieve very substantial cost and staffing efficiencies and I expect them to identify the best means of achieving these. More detailed action plans and progress reports, identifying each action/project and the rate of progress and achievements to date, are available on each agency website. The Implementation Body for the Agreement is currently considering the progress reported by the agencies during the period, April to September 2011. The Body is due to publish a summary of the progress reported to it on its website shortly. Once the Body has completed its consideration, the progress reports for this particular reporting period will be published on the agencies' websites.
