Having appointed Ministers and Ministers of State to their various portfolios across Government, I am also considering the advisory supports that I might need in my role as Taoiseach and Head of Government. While I have not as yet fully finalised the make-up of my team, it currently consists of a Chief of Staff at Deputy Secretary level, a Deputy Chief of Staff at Assistant Secretary level and 3 Special Advisers at Principal Officer level. It is also my intention to shortly appoint an adviser with relevant expertise on economic policy.

It should be noted that all of the above appointments are subject to Government approval and relevant contracts will be laid before the Oireachtas in due course.
