The Transforming Public Services conference took place in Croke Park in February. This annual conference, supported by Deloitte, was attended by around 150 delegates who heard from local and visiting speakers. Reform of public services has been a central part of the response to the challenges of recent years, and must continue to be a priority for the years ahead, and build on what has been achieved so far. The conference was addressed by speakers from the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, the Irish Prison Service, Dublin City University and the National Shared Services Office among others.
