Department of Finance
|
|
Administrative History/Biography
Past responsibilities of the
Department of Finance have included fiscal, budgetary and economic policy;
taxation (from 1923); the preparation and auditing of the national accounts
and the annual budget, the collection of revenue and expenditure by
government agencies, exchequer accounts and payrolls; the management of the
Civil Service including recruitment, staffing, establishment, promotion,
remuneration and conditions, pensions, conciliation and arbitration; the
preparation and examination of Bills; economic forecasting, planning and
development (from 1959); European Union policy co-ordination and the European
Union budget and funds. It was allocated responsibility in January and April
1922 for the control of a wide number of agencies taken over from the
previous administration and is currently directly responsible for overseeing
the administration of the Revenue Commissioners, the Office of Public Works,
the Civil Service Commission, the Valuation Office, the Ordnance Survey, the
State Laboratory and the Office of the Ombudsman and Information
Commissioner. The initial official designation of the Department under the
Provisional Government (1922) was ´Finance and General´, but the title never
seems to have been used. Before April 1922, the non-official titles employed
were ‘Treasury’ or ‘Ministry of Finance’ [or Aireacht Airgid in Irish]. From
1 April 1922 by order of the Executive Council [the Cabinet], its official
title became the ‘Ministry of Finance’. The term ´Treasury´ persisted less
formally, and references to ´Finance Department´ also occur in Executive
Council minutes. Official titles of offices were not formally settled until
the Ministers and Secretaries Act 1924, when the title the Department of
Finance [or An Roinn Airgid in Irish] was established. The Department can
also trace part of its provenance to the Dáil Éireann Department of Finance.

remuneration and conditions, pensions, conciliation and arbitration; the
preparation and examination of Bills; economic forecasting, planning and
development (from 1959); European Union policy co-ordination and the European
Union budget and funds. It was allocated responsibility in January and April
1922 for the control of a wide number of agencies taken over from the
previous administration and is currently directly responsible for overseeing
the administration of the Revenue Commissioners, the Office of Public Works,
the Civil Service Commission, the Valuation Office, the Ordnance Survey, the
State Laboratory and the Office of the Ombudsman and Information
Commissioner. The initial official designation of the Department under the
Provisional Government (1922) was ´Finance and General´, but the title never
seems to have been used. Before April 1922, the non-official titles employed
were ‘Treasury’ or ‘Ministry of Finance’ [or Aireacht Airgid in Irish]. From
1 April 1922 by order of the Executive Council [the Cabinet], its official
title became the ‘Ministry of Finance’. The term ´Treasury´ persisted less
formally, and references to ´Finance Department´ also occur in Executive
Council minutes. Official titles of offices were not formally settled until
the Ministers and Secretaries Act 1924, when the title the Department of Finance
[or An Roinn Airgid in Irish] was established. The Department can also trace
part of its provenance to the Dáil Éireann Department of Finance.
