On commencement of the Regulation of Lobbying Act 2015, 1st September 2015, each public body with Designated Public Officials is required under section 6(4) of the Act to publish a list showing the name, grade and brief details of the role and responsibilities of each “Designated Public Official” of the body.
The purpose of the list is twofold: 1) To allow members of the public identify those persons who are Designated Public Officials; and 2) As a resource for lobbyists filing a return to the Register who may need to source a Designated Public Official’s details.
Each Elected Member of Waterford City & County Council is also a ‘Designated Public Official’ under this Act. Names and titles of these officials appear below
