Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 26 July 2017
248. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the number of staff in his Department who are suspended from work on full pay; the reason in each case; the length of time in each case; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36735/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI would like to advise the Deputy that there are no staff in the core Department of Public Expenditure and Reform suspended from work on full pay.
My Department also includes the National Shared Services Office and the Office of Government Procurement. There are no staff suspended on full pay from the National Shared Services Office. There is currently one Office of Government Procurement officer on suspension with pay. As this process is ongoing, I am not in a position to provide further information at this point in time.
