They're ghouls serving Ghoul Investigators.

Like I said, it's just something that were supposed to be under the impression of all things considering. Tsukiyama drew similarities between :re and Anteiku, Touka said it might be better if Kaneki never came back, and it's ran by Yoshimura’s employees/apprentices and has no reason to divert. One of its main functions is to be a home for Kaneki which is a part in over all "recreating" Anteiku.

As an indirect approach though, :re is also the place Chie went to to find help for Tsukiyama. Which is actually kind of big if you think about since Anteiku came across as being slightly more stern with human/ghoul relations despite what Yoshimra was trying to do. In the original series, Touka would've killed Chie on the spot if no one was there to stop her, then she would have chastised Tsukiyama for being careless.
