Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 April 2018
1611. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government to set out the number of clerical officers and clerical assistants in his Department on temporary contracts by years of service; if these officers will be offered permanent positions in the Civil Service when they have served a fixed period; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16433/18]
View answerThere are currently two Temporary Clerical Officers employed in my Department. Both are employed on three month contracts with the option to extend for two additional three month periods subject to business needs. Both were recruited through a competition run by the Public Appointments Service and, in line with the terms and conditions of the competition, the assignments are to temporary positions only with no entitlement to a permanent position.
