Our objectives are to ensure the Service operates in an effective and efficient manner, in line with Government targets and initiatives." He continues "We invite all sections of the Community to take part in the consultation process. This is particularly important as we propose further improvements to the service, ensuring that the service we provide meets public expectations."
