Dáil Éireann Debate, Monday - 11 September 2017
1662. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the average time it took to recruit social care workers in the Cavan, Monaghan and north Meath areas in 2016, and to date in 2017. [37725/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI wish to inform the Deputy that I am advised by Tusla that their best practise planning allows for 16 weeks recruitment timeline. However, I am informed that individual campaigns may be completed in 8-20 weeks depending on outside factors, such as the candidate release dates and required documentation.
