Written answers

The information the Deputy has requested going back over the last 24 years is not readily available. The following table presents the number of staff in each of the main general service grades in the Civil Service each year for the last ten years. Additional information may be available in the State Directories, which can be found in the Oireachtas library. Aggregate figures on all those employed in the public service, dating back to 1994 are also available on the Department’s databank which can be found at http://databank.per.gov.ie. The information sought in relation to pay relativities to other grades within the wider public service is not available to my Department.
