Periodic Critical Review of Pobal

The Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies (2016) requires that parent Departments carry out a Periodic Critical Review of their agencies every 5 years.

The review focuses on the ongoing business case for the entity, its performance, efficiency and effectiveness and its governance arrangements.

The project was overseen by a Steering Group made up of representatives from this Department, the Departments of Public Expenditure and Reform, Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth and Social Protection and Pobal.
