Aengus Ó Snodaigh
Question:59. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if the employment of temporary clerical officers, TCOs, in her Department and, in particular, the awarding of long-term contracts to TCOs affect the chances of an established clerical officer, CO, transferring to another office in the same Department; if the awarding of long-term contracts to TCOs is what this role was intended for; the reason an established CO cannot be accommodated with a transfer to work on these projects; and if there is a business case for extra staff, the reason TCOs should be awarded long-term contracts at the expense of an established permanent CO with an exemplary employment record.
