As Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation, I have appointed two Special Advisers. 

The appointments were made in line with the "Instructions to Personnel Officers - Ministerial Appointments for the 32nd Dáil" that were issued by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER), which permits the appointment of a maximum of two special advisers.

Details of these appointments are publicly available through the DPER website, and are set out in the following table.

Prior to their current appointments, both individuals served as Special Advisers to me in my capacity as Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
