Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government (Deputy Phil Hogan)

An integrated annual progress report under the Public Sector (Croke Park) Agreement 2010-2014 for my Department and its agencies was published on my Department's website in May 2012. An integrated Action Plan for the implementation of the Agreement by my Department and its agencies was also published on my Department's website in March 2012.

I am satisfied with the pace of reform reported in the recent annual progress report and with the plans for future reforms, as outlined in the integrated Action Plan. The progress report, the Action Plan and other relevant information are available on my Department's website atwww.environ.ie/en/AboutUs/PublicSectorAgreement2010-2014/.
