Vol. 474 No. 3
223 Miss Coughlan asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment the number of public servants in areas falling within the remit of his Department who are currently on career breaks; and the number who have been waiting over two months to return to work. [2964/97]
There are 31 civil servants currently on career break from my Department, none of whom have been waiting over two months to return to work.
With regard to public servants in State bodies under the aegis of my Department, this is a day-to-day matter for those bodies and, therefore, one in which I have no function.
