Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the number of new additional staff recruited, as distinct from redeployed from within the Civil Service to staff the new division that deals with international protection and the Ukrainian situation.

Amharc ar fhreagraI take it that the Deputy is referring to the Ukraine Division which was established in response to the Ukraine crisis.
As of the 11th of November 2022, there were 142 people assigned to work in or support the Ukraine Division. This includes 15 new recruits and 15 Ukrainian Temporary Clerical Officers, staff on secondment or temporary assignment from other Departments and staff internally reassigned from within my Department.
