625 Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of sick days taken by staff in his Department in 2009, 2010 and 2011; the average number of sick days per staff in total across his Department and broken down by Department section in 2009, 2010 and 2011; and the median number of sick days per staff in total across his Department and broken down by Department section in 2009, 2010 and 2011 in tabular form. [36847/12]
View answerThe number of sick days taken by staff in my Department is set out in the table below:

The breakdown of the information in the manner requested by the Deputy is not readily available and to provide such detail would require the allocation of a disproportionate and inordinate amount of staff time and resources.
