asked the Minister for Agriculture the number of vacant posts for agricultural instructors with ACOT in County Cork; and the steps he will take to fill such vacancies immediately.
Written Answers. - ACOT Instructors.
510.
The recruitment and deployment of agricultural instructors is entirely a matter for An Chomhairle Oiliúna Talmhaíochta. I have been informed by ACOT, however, that three of the 47 agricultural instructor posts in County Cork are vacant at present.
