Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government

I propose to take Questions Nos. 235 and 237 together.

A number of the transactional HR functions of my Department transitioned to PeoplePoint in April 2016. As the new system will take some time to settle in fully, the number of staff engaged in my Department’s Human Resources function has remained at 9.73 full time equivalents but will be reviewed when this initial phase is completed.
