Employment agencies are not used by my Department to recruit staff. All fillable vacancies are filled through the Civil Service Commission and certain temporary positions are filled through the National Manpower Service.
In regard to the State bodies under the aegis of my Department I propose to circulate a statement outlining the extent to which employment agencies have been used in the past twelve months.
The following is the statement:
