Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 7 October 2015
70. Deputy Seamus Kirk asked the Minister for Finance if he will provide in tabular form the total number of staff under the remit of his Department that have applied to be transferred to Department or State agency offices located outside the Dublin region; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35294/15]
View answerI am aware of five staff who have applied through the Human Resources Unit of my Department to be transferred to Departments outside the Dublin region including my Department's Office in Tullamore. I wish to inform the Deputy there are a few ways for staff to apply for a transfer to other Departments and Offices including applying directly to the Department/Office and applying for a "Head to Head" transfer through their Union Magazine. My Department would not be aware of such applications.
