Minister for Finance

I wish to advise the Deputy that staffing numbers are constantly changing throughout the year so the staff numbers provided in the attached table are at year end, except for 2020. Staff members in my Department avail of the many family friendly opportunities which include worksharing, parental leave and shorter working year scheme. Currently there are 30 staff members worksharing, from PO down to CO.
