Ms Flanagan is a former Director General of the Office of the Attorney General. The previous full-time Commissioner, Ms Patricia Rickard-Clarke, has retired.

Mr O'Connell is a Law Lecturer in NUI Galway. The vacancy as a part-time Commissioner arises because Mr Justice Donal O'Donnell has resigned.
