Management of the courts, operational matters and logistical functions are the responsibility of the judiciary and Courts Service, which are independent in the exercise of their functions.

As the Ward of Court Office falls under the remit of the Courts Service, I have referred your question to the Courts Service for their direct reply. The Courts Service also has a dedicated email address for the provision of information to members of the Houses of the Oireachtas at: oireachtasenquiries@courts.ie.
