About Citizens Information

www.citizensinformation.ie provides comprehensive information on all aspects of Public Services and entitlements for citizens in Ireland. www.citizensinformation.ie is based on a personal approach to the presentation and delivery of information on public services and the social and civil rights of everyone in Ireland. We gather information from various government departments and agencies, and make sure that you have all the information you need, presented in an easy-to-understand way.

The site has been specially designed around the needs of users for those times in life when you need information about your rights and how to apply for State services in Ireland.

www.citizensinformation.ie was developed, and is maintained by the Citizens Information Board (formerly Comhairle) to replace the Oasis website. www.citizensinformation.ie website is an Irish e-government initiative, and was originally established under the Government’s first action plan for the Information Society. The Citizens Information Board is also developing a new site aimed at people who are unemployed or facing a reduced hours situation at work. This site is called www.losingyourjob.ie.
