View answerStaffing issues, including the issue of absenteeism, are a matter for the HR function of each of the agencies under the aegis of my Department. This information is not monitored or collated centrally and is consequently not readily available.
However if the Deputy is interested in a particular agency my Department officials will be happy to arrange for the provision of this information.
