There are currently 14 (WTE 13.3) Community Welfare Officers (CWOs) based in County Tipperary.
Given the fluctuation in demand for the Community Welfare Service, particularly during the pandemic when resources were allocated to areas where they were most needed, staffing numbers within locations changed frequently. Therefore, it is not possible to provide accurate information relating to number of CWOs for years prior to 2022.
I trust this clarifies the matter.
