Written answers

Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

The current recruitment campaign for the role of Technical Agricultural Officer is being administered by the Public Appointments Service (PAS) on behalf of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.

I would advise that any queries in relation to this competition should be directed to PAS.

If the individual is seeking information in relation to a previous competition, they are welcome to contact the HR Division of my Department for further guidance.
