Question:52 Mr. M. McDowell asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the fact that persons in the public service are being granted redundancy/early retirement packages in circumstances in which they are free to seek employment in other public sector agencies; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that some transactions could be effected far more economically by secondment or transfer; his policy regarding persons retiring early from the State service who become reengaged in other State-funded agencies; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
