Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 February 2008
189 Deputy Leo Varadkar asked the Taoiseach the non-property cost of decentralisation for each quarter since the project was initiated with regard to his Department’s quarterly return to the Decentralisation Implementation Group; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3214/08]
View answer190 Deputy Leo Varadkar asked the Taoiseach the number of civil and public servants in his Department who have been decentralised to date; the number who will be decentralised in total under the scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3229/08]
View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 189 and 190 together. 32 staff currently serving in my Department have applied through the Central Applications Facility to relocate under the Decentralisation Programme. The breakdown by grade is:

16 former members of staff have already been assigned to decentralised posts. The Deputy will be aware that there are no proposals to decentralise my Department or any of the bodies under its aegis and accordingly the information sought regarding the non-property cost of decentralisation for each quarter since the project was initiated with regard to my Department's quarterly return to the Decentralisation Implementation Group does not apply.
