Written answers

The human resources section of my Department is aware that the officer concerned has applied to decentralise to County Kildare and will do whatever it can to facilitate her application. It is a matter for the Departments based in, or moving to, her preferred locations to make an offer of a transfer to the officer.

The officer's first preference is not available at this stage, and her second preference is oversubscribed at the relevant grade. However, my Department will monitor the situation and try to help in every way possible.
