The Government is committed to creating, a leaner more efficient Public Service.
The data requested relating to the number of staff at each grade within the civil service by the Deputy is set out in the attached table. The data on Public Service staffing numbers which is available on my Department’s website http://databank.per.gov.ie/ demonstrates that significant progress is being made in reducing the numbers employed across all of the Public Service, including the Civil Service. Since their peak of over 39,300 in 2008, Civil Service numbers have fallen by some 3,000 net which is about 8%.
As previously stated, data on the number of positions filled by redeployment in individual organisations is not collated by my Department. However, progress made in implementing the provisions of the Croke Park Agreement, including examples of progress on redeploying public servants within and across sectors of the public service (including over 1,700 in to the Civil Service), is set out in the website of the Implementation Body at http://implementationbody.gov.ie/progress-and-delivery/ .
The latest available data on moratorium exceptions will be forwarded to the Deputy as requested.
