In April 1986 a manager and assistant manager-caretaker were appointed for the sports hall at St. Thomas' community college, Bray on a temporary basis. In May 1987 the assistant manager-caretaker resigned. The terms of the embargo on recruitment in the public service have precluded my Department from sanctioning the filling of this vacancy by Town of Bray VEC. However, my Department is at present examining the case further in the light of detailed financial information about the operation of the centre recently received from the VEC.
