286. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if the posts of director general and adjudication officer (at assistant principal officer-level) have been filled in the Workplace Relations Commission; and if not, when he expects both posts to be filled. [54474/23]
View answerOn behalf of my Department, recruitment of the Director General of the Workplace Relations Commission is undertaken by the Public Appointments Service (PAS). The competition is well underway and is being managed by PAS. It is PAS policy not to comment on an open competition.
The Adjudication Service of the Workplace Relations Commission is staffed by 15 Assistant Principal (AP) Adjudication Officers and supplemented by a panel from which experts can be drawn from to provide adjudication services (external Adjudicators). One of the 15 AP Adjudication Officers posts is vacant and it is intended to fill this position as soon as possible.
