Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 1 July 2015
156. Deputy David Stanton asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of applications received from civilian staff working in An Garda Síochána for transfer to another Department in 2013, 2014 and to date in 2015; the number of same which resulted in a transfer out of An Garda Síochána; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [26543/15]
View answerI have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that An Garda Síochána does not maintain a central record of civilian staff who apply to transfer to another Government Department. The information requested by the Deputy can only be obtained in the format outlined by the disproportionate expenditure of Garda time and resources relative to the information sought.
I am further informed that the following table represents the number of civilian staff who have moved into An Garda Síochána either by redeployment, secondment or transfer. It also illustrates the number of civilian staff who have transferred out to other Government Departments for the years in question.
