Question:95 Mr. Kehoe asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if his Department has temporary staff such as technical agricultural officers and cleaners; the number of technical agricultural officers who have been made permanent from 1994 to the present; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13061/04]
View answerMy Department employs a number of cleaners from time to time on a temporary basis. My Department has currently no officers serving in the technical agricultural officer, TAO, grade on a temporary basis.
Since 1994 approximately 48 officers, while serving as temporary technical agricultural officers, were appointed to unestablished positions of technical agricultural officer from competitions held by the Civil Service and Local Appointments Commissioners. A number of these officers have since been appointed to established positions.
