Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 April 2018
1670. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the number of clerical officers and clerical assistants in her Department on temporary contracts by years of service; if these officers will be offered permanent positions in the Civil Service when they have served a fixed period; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [16426/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised that 15 Temporary Clerical Officers were appointed to my Department from 01/01/2017 to date. The duration of the contracts was a minimum of 8 weeks to a maximum of 50 weeks, with no contract exceeding a year in duration. No permanent position was offered following these temporary contracts as the work was for a fixed period of time to meet business needs within particular units.
