The Irish Bishops Conference is the official gathering of the Roman Catholic Bishops in Ireland. The Irish Bishops meet several times a year in Maynooth, County Kildare, the location of St. Patrick’s College, Maynooth, Ireland's national Roman Catholic Seminary. While each bishop is autonomous in his own diocese, meetings of the Conference give bishops a chance to discuss issues of mutual concern, or issues of national policy.

The Archbishop of Armagh as Primate of All Ireland, is the chairperson of the Irish Bishop's Conference. The current Archbishop is HIs Eminence Sean Brady. 

The Catholic Communications Office is an Agency of the Irish Bishops Conference that handles all news events and press releases.
