Since I took office in March 2011, my Department has engaged two retired public servants to act as civilian drivers to the Minister of State, Mr. Paul Kehoe T.D. These appointments are temporary, unestablished positions in the Civil Service on a fixed-term contract basis. No further retired public servants have been rehired as employees by my Department, the Defence Forces or the bodies under the aegis of my Department, i.e. the Civil Defence Board, the Army Pensions Board and the Board of Coiste an Asgard, since I took office.
