A breakdown of the staffing structure of my Department at 31 October 1987 is set out in a tabular statement which I will be giving to the Deputy.
The scheme of voluntary redundancy — early retirement has, only this week, been extended to all serving officers over 50 years of age. Staff in my Department have yet to be formally notified of the extension of the scheme, so it is too early at this stage to say how many officers will avail of the scheme during 1988.
