Vol. 546 No. 5

Written Answers. - Departmental Staff.

Denis Naughten

Ceist:

121 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development the number of civil servants in his Department on transfer lists to sections of his Department out of Dublin; the locations and numbers involved; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32311/01]

It is assumed that the Deputy is referring to the transfer lists maintained for clerical officer and staff officers under General Council Report 782. The following schedule gives the numbers of applications from staff in my Department who have indicated that they wish to transfer to locations outside Dublin by grade and location. These lists are not an accurate reflection of current interest in a location as frequently the applicants' circumstances have changed by the time their place is reached on the list. In the effort to arrive at an up-to-date indication of interest for provincial locations, the Department of Finance has recently directed that all applicants renew their application. These returns are currently being collated by all Departments and it is anticipated the task should be completed by end January 2002.
