It is a statutory function of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform to make Orders in respect of prescribed bodies for the purposes of the Freedom of Information Act 2014 and I have not been consulted by him in relation to the making of any such Order.
Exempted Bodies under my Department's aegis are typically those commercial companies which operate within a commercial environment.
In addition there are two bodies which are partially included - Iarnród Éireann which is included except in relation to its commercial activities in Rosslare Europort and the Medical Bureau of Road Safety which is excluded in relation to criminal investigation functions.
