Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 January 2010
909 Deputy Denis Naughten asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the number of staff in his Department, broken down by division and section, annually since 2007 to date in 2010; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2168/10]
View answerThe information requested in relation to my Department's staffing at the end of 2007, 2008 and 2009 is set out in the following table.
The information is broken down by Division. The preparation of information at section level would involve a disproportionate amount of time and work, as in the period since 2007, there has been significant structural and staff change in the Department as a result of decentralisation, the Moratorium on Promotions and Recruitment, and the Incentivised Scheme of Early Retirement and Incentivised Career Break Schemes. My Department has restructured its Divisions and Business Units to take account of these changes and to enable it to deliver on its key objectives and priorities.
