Management standards for Departments of State

What this means

• The Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform sets and oversees management standards for all Departments of State in Ireland.[source]
• This mandate is grounded in the Public Service Management Act 1997, which provides the legal framework for how government departments are run.[source]
• The Act sets out the authority, responsibility and accountability of Secretaries General, who are the most senior civil servants in each department.[source]
• This matters for accountability because it clarifies who is responsible for how public money and resources are managed within each government department.[source]
