Welcome to the Civil Service Year Book website. The fully redesigned and comprehensive site was launched in April 2003 as an easy gateway to the fully updated and expanded content. Since then we have been working to evolve and improve the site to make it an even more useful tool for anyone working with or within the Civil Service.

As the official directory to the Civil Service, the Year Book provides all the latest information on the different sectors of the Civil Service, its structure and key personnel. It includes:

• Full details of all central and devolved Government, their contact details, responsibilities and key staff
• Comprehensive details of all executive agencies and non-departmental public bodies and their affiliations
• Details of a wide range of related organisations, including museums, galleries, libraries and research establishments
• Enquiry numbers for all the main departments.
