Question:

[18889/02]

The Office of the Civil Service Commissioners and Local Appointments Commissioners held four open recruitment competitions for former civil servants in 2001. The competitions were for clerical officer, executive officer, executive officer-junior systems analyst and administrative officer.

The numbers of candidates who were placed on the panels for these competitions and the number of candidates who were assigned from the panels are set out in the following tables. The Office of the Civil Service Commissioners and Local Appointments Commissioners has informed me that it does not maintain information on whether the candidates at the four competitions were former employees of Eircom.
