The National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) is the only body under the remit of my Department. It is the body corporate for the National Economic and Social Council (NESC), which advises me on strategic policy issues relating to sustainable economic, social and environmental development. NESDO has been allocated a grant of just over €2 million from my Department's Vote for 2017.

There is no service level agreement in place between my Department and NESDO as NESDO is a body set up under statute (the National Economic and Social Development Office Act 2006).

The Law Reform Commission (LRC) has been allocated a grant of just under €2.24 million through the Vote of the Office of the Attorney General. There is no service level agreement in place between the Office of the Attorney General and the LRC as the LRC is a body set up by statute (the Law Reform Commission Act 1975).
