The Programme for Government contains a commitment to “extend the lobbying register so that the lobbying of senior officials in bodies like the Central Bank of Ireland, Comreg, the NTA and the HSE which have significant policymaking or development functions will need to be reported on the same basis as central and local government.”

The positions of senior officials in the Land Development Agency, along with those in other public sector bodies, will be considered as part of this work as regards whether such individuals should be prescribed as designated public officials under the Act.
