There are nine Special Advisers employed in my Department. They are as follows:
- the Chief of Staff;
- the Spokesman and Communications Adviser to the Taoiseach;
- the Head of Policy and Programme Implementation;
- four Special Advisers to the Taoiseach; and
- two Special Advisers to the Government Chief Whip.
The Special Advisers working in my Department provide briefings and advice on a wide range of policy matters, as well as performing other functions as I may direct from time to time. They also liaise with other Special Advisers in each Government Department so that I remain informed on developments across Government.
