A customer charter setting out the standards of service that people can expect in their dealings with the Department is displayed in the Department's public offices and on its website, www.welfare.ie. To monitor its services, the Department operates a comment and complaint system which allows people express their views on the service provided. The Department values the views of all those accessing their service and will continue to monitor and improve on the quality of service it provides as opportunities to do so arise.
