The Programme for a Partnership Government was published on 11 May and sets out an ambitious programme of work to be implemented over the lifetime of the Government.

My Department is working in consultation with all Departments to identify individual commitments and agree responsibility for these actions. These will be published in due course by each Department in their respective Statements of Strategy.

While this process has not yet concluded, my Department will have a number of commitments coming under its responsibility including the areas of Dáil reform, relations with Britain and Northern Ireland, and managing the new partnership approach between government and parliament. Officials in my Department will work with all stakeholders involved to progress these issues over the lifetime of the Government.
