Additional staff may be involved in portal inspections, i.e. administration staff, but they are not necessarily based in a portal location.
My Department avails of workforce planning processes to achieve and maintain the correct level of human resources required in each portal location for inspection duties. Overall staffing levels within Divisions are continually monitored by HR.
