Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 April 2022
803. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Defence if he will outline all of the secondment arrangements within his Department; the conditions related to such secondments; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19864/22]
View answerThere is currently a total of fourteen secondment arrangements within my Department.
Five staff are currently seconded out of my Department. The salary for the majority of secondees out is paid directly by the new employer. In any case where that is not the situation, the new employer is invoiced and the cost recouped.
Nine staff are currently temporarily seconded into my Department. In the main, these secondees are paid directly by my Department. Again, where this is not the situation, my Department is invoiced and the cost is recouped.
