Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Office of the Parliamentary Counsel to Government is a constituent department of the Office of the Attorney General of Ireland. Parliamentary Counsel to Government draft government Bills (including Bills to amend the Constitution of Ireland, revision Bills, amendments to Bills, consolidation and restatement Bills). Parliamentary Counsel are lawyers who prepare legislation that it is proposed to pass into law. The term Parliamentary draftsman (or draughtsman) is also widely used. These terms are used in relation to the United Kingdom parliament, and other parliaments on the Westminster system. The official title, and organization, of the parliamentary counsel varies between legislatures. For example, those who draft government legislation for the UK parliament form the Parliamentary Counsel Office (established in 1869 under the title of the Office of Parliamentary Counsel) while the Office of the Scottish Parliamentary Counsel drafts legislation for the Scottish Parliament.
