Since my appointment as Taoiseach, I have recruited the following advisers:

- a Chief of Staff;

- a Spokesman and Communications Adviser; and

- 4 Special Advisers.

It should be noted that I have not, as yet, finalised the make-up of my team and that all of the above appointments are, of course, subject to Government approval.
