View answerMy Department works closely with Dublin City Council in relation to the staffing needs of Dublin Fire Brigade. My Department recently approved requests from Dublin City Council, to hold both an open and a confined competition to fill firefighter vacancies that arise in Dublin Fire Brigade. It is my understanding that details of the open competition, which will be organised through the Public Appointments Service, will be announced shortly.
