Step 1
http://www.irlgov.ie
Type in the address of the Government of Ireland website (http://www.irlgov.ie) and hit the ‘Return’ or ‘Enter’ key. A web address can sometimes be referred to as a URL.
This website could be described as the ‘front door’ to the Irish government online as it functions as the ‘one-stop’, easy-to-use web portal to governmentonline services.

This means you can access information on any government department or state agency.
Step 2
Click on All State Organisations to access organisations divided into different categories, such as Central Government, Commercial Semi-State, Education, Government Departments, Local Authority, Other Links (e.g. Northern Ireland Tourist Board), or Police/Defence Forces.
