The OPC is currently organised into 4 groups, each having responsibility for providing professional legislative drafting services to specific Government Departments.

The Chief Parliamentary Counsel is a member of the Government Legislation Committee, chaired by the Government Chief Whip, which is responsible for settling and monitoring the progress of the Government Legislation Programme for each Dáil session. The Chief Parliamentary Counsel attends meetings of the Government Legislation Committee, along with the Attorney General and the Parliamentary Counsel Group Managers, with regard to the legislative drafting work of the OPC.
