In line with the approach recommended in the CoFPI Report, an Implementation Group on Policing Reform (IGPR) has been established with Helen Ryan – a former member of CoFPI – as its independent Chair.
The IGPR has collective responsibility for the delivery of A Policing Service for our Future. The core membership of the IGPR comprises senior officials from the organisations most closely involved in driving the transformation programme - An Garda Síochána; the Department of Justice; the Department of the Taoiseach; and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. Senior representatives of other relevant organisations are also involved in the work of the IGPR as required.
A High Level Steering Board on Policing Reform (HLSB), chaired by the Secretary General of the Department of the Taoiseach, has also been established to support and guide the work of the IGPR and to act as a clearing house for issues that cannot be resolved by the IGPR, or where particular blockages are being experienced in the implementation of A Policing Service for our Future.
In addition, a Policing Reform Implementation Programme Office (PRIPO) has been established in the Department of the Taoiseach with the purpose of driving implementation of A Policing Service for our Future. PRIPO has been resourced with appropriate expertise in the areas of project management; policing; justice; and public service reform.
PRIPO publishes progress reports on an annual basis so that there is complete transparency on the progress being made on the implementation of the Plan.
