I am informed that the number of Probation Service staff currently assigned in County Donegal is as follows:
1 Senior Probation Officer (with responsibility for adult and young probation);
4 Probation Officers;
2 Community Service Supervisors (part time); and
1 Clerical Officer.
This amounts to a total full-time staffing complement of 7 at the present time.
The Deputy may wish to note that the Probation Service prioritises its workload and allocates resources in such a way as to maximise efficiency and effectiveness. This prioritisation includes particular focus on the delivery of front-line services and the supervision of Community Service Orders.
