Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 July 2016
924. Deputy David Cullinane asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the number of staff who entered the public service after 1 January 2011 in her Department and by year of entry to date; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [23493/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI understand that the information on the number of staff who entered the civil service is being replied to by the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.
No person has entered the public service post 1 January 2011 (other than the civil service) in my Department.
It is not clear whether the Deputy's question refers to agencies under the aegis of the Department. However, a number of agencies under the remit of my Department employ public servants (including some civil servants). I have asked these agencies to respond directly to the Deputy with the information requested.
