The National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO), the only body under the aegis of my Department, was established under the National Economic and Social Development Office Act, 2006. Its function is to advise me as Taoiseach on all strategic matters relevant to economic and social development in the State. At present NESDO has 15 employees. The rates of remuneration of NESDO staff are based on the pay-scales set by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform with the Chief Officer of NESDO being paid at the Assistant Secretary level.
