The recruitment of staff to the Road Safety Authority (RSA) is a matter for the Authority itself and is addressed in the context of the Haddington Road Agreement and in consultation with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (DPER). The RSA, in common with other State Agencies and Government Departments, is subject to the Employment Control Framework introduced by DPER in relation to any staff levels. A review of the RSA has been completed by my Department and my officials are in discussions with DPER regarding the future structure of the Authority, including its future staffing levels.
