The statutory bodies operating under the aegis of my Department are the Citizens Information Board, the Pensions Authority, the Pensions Council, the Low Pay Commission and the Social Welfare Tribunal. The administrative headquarters for these bodies are located in Dublin.

There are no direct employees of the Pensions Council, the Low Pay Commission and the Social Welfare Tribunal.  The administrative function of these bodies is absorbed by staff within the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection.
