On behalf of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Micheál Marin T.D., I wish to thank you for your recent query regarding the staffing of the British-Irish Intergovernmental Secretariat in Belfast.
For reasons of security and data protection, it is not possible for us to provide you with details of the Irish staff serving the Secretariat.
The Secretariat is a joint Irish-British body and is staffed by officials of both the Irish and British governments. It would not be correct to say that the position of the Joint Secretary is comparable to that of persons serving as Heads of Irish missions abroad."
