Amharc ar fhreagraThere are currently four persons on the payroll of my Department who are not working therein. One officer is on long-term sick leave. One is on secondment to another State organisation and the salary paid in respect of this officer is recouped from that organisation. A further officer is employed by the Council of National Cultural Institutions and the fourth officer is paid by this Department but carries out work for the Irish Manuscripts Commission.
