Minister for Social and Family Affairs (Mary Coughlan)

The five statutory agencies operating under the aegis of my Department are the Pensions Board, the Combat Poverty Agency, Comhairle, the Social Welfare Tribunal and the Family Support Agency.

Appointments to State boards are made on basis of qualifications and suitability of the individuals concerned. There are no members currently serving with a correspondence address in County Roscommon.
