No members or former members of the judiciary have acted as chairperson or member of any body in or under the aegis of my Department during the past five years. However, in June 2012, Justice Colin Daly resigned his position as Managing Solicitor of the Northside Community Law Centre (NCLC) following his appointment as District Court Judge, and is currently serving in the Dublin area. My Department provides funding to the NCLC under the Scheme of Grants for the Development and Promotion of Information and Welfare Rights.
